Drains in Concrete

Well, after fighting off the flu, I can finally put this post up. We've had our floor drain, utility sink drain, shower drain, and toilet drain all done for awhile. However, as I mentioned, I had the flu, so I could not get these up sooner than this.

Anyhow, here are all of our new drains. We will get this inspected Friday and hopefully cover it up over the weekend!

All of the drains. From left to right:
floor drain, utility sink drain, and bathtub drain.

All of the cast iron drain pipes had to be replaced because they were rusty and fell apart on us as we replaced them. Luckily, we were able to get to a connection that is in pretty good condition. At this place we used an SV Joint to join up the new PVC pipes with the old cast iron pipes. The floor is about a half inch lower than the rest of the concrete. The utility sink will have use something like a DeFracnco valve for venting. The tub drain is now in the correct spot and tied to the existing vent. That vent has a clean out, so if it ever gets stopped up we can clean it out real easily.

Toilet Drain

The toilet drain is stubbed up so that after I have the concrete poured, we can put the sub floor and floor around it. This allows us to cut it down to the exact floor height later when we finish the bathroom.

We will see how the inspection goes this Friday! Hopefully well!
