Hi everyone,
I have a small, dripping leak from a pipe under my kitchen sink. It was botched by the previous owner and so now, I'm trying to resolve it.
When I use a tape measure, the white pipe in the red circle is a little over 7 and a half inches in circumference. If I use PIE that works out to be around 2 1/2 inches - however, when I compare the pipes at Home Depot, the 3 inch pipe looks more like it.
What I "think" I'll do is cut where the red circle is so that I have a somewhat nice piece of pipe as the leak is coming from where all that silicone is.
However, I have two lines running into it - one from a sink and one from a disposal. Here's a pic of the lines running into that Y pipe:
My question is - what is the neatest/cleanest way to run these pipes?
I had a hard time at Home Depot this weekend finding a 3" pipe with two, 1.5" outlets - does that even exist?
Any informed opinions are much appreciated!
