I'm trying to plan out my new plumbing to connect a wall hung toilet to and existing 2" drain and vent. In the image below the new wall hung toilet is covered in black plastic to help keep things clean. The old 3 inch drain is in the left bay and turns vertical down through a 2x4 supporting wall...

I'm installing a Toto wall hung toilet as part of our bathroom renovation and wanted to get some feedback on putting a 3" ABS pipe through an adjacent 2x10 floor joist that sits on a wall partition below. Hopefully with my sketch and photos I can relay what I'd like to do. The current 3" pipe...

I have a Manufactured Home. Yanked out a rotten broken old tub and am replacing with a Lyons Shower Pan and Wall Wrap. The pan requires a 3" Drain, and my homes waste pipe is 2" ABS. Heres my Issue, i can't access the pipes from under the house, or from the sides, its a Back Center Drain and I'm...

Hi Everyone. I have an offset coupling that is installed in a 4" waste pipe and it is starting to leak. I can't seem to find a similar (offset) coupling in stores, so I wanted to turn to this community for advice. The coupling is 3.75" long and has about a 2" offset between the two pipes. The...

Hi there! First time posting here, Id appreciate any advice you can give me. Im installing a new sink in my bathroom and I can't figure out how to connect the ABS to this 1 1/2" cast iron drain hole. It looks like it's both venting and draining. I'd rather not tear open the drywall and replace...

I have a slight leak on an waste ABS pipe 45 degree joint in a very confined space (I can barely reach my hand to touch it) that I need to repair. What ideas do you have to repair it? The ideas I have researched were to spread ABS cement with ABS shavings along the edges of the joint or cut the...

Howdy, I've come upon a missing link. I'm remodeling a bathroom, and the toilet vent is 2.5" ABS. Did companies stop making these fittings? Just too odd of a size? I'm only replacing the pipe through floor and hooking back up to old "Y", don't want to have to run new 2" all the way through roof.

I've used slip couplings on copper, PVC, and CPVC with no problems, but I can't figure out how to make one work on a 2" ABS vent I had to relocate. It won't slip on dry at all, and while it might slide on with some cement to lubricate it, with my luck it would set up before I could slip it over...
