I just purchased a Snappy Trap drain kit today. I really liked that it had almost all parts necessary for any possible problem! Saved me a trip to the hardware store. The accordion pipe is smooth inside, and stretches a bit if you need it. Great improvement! I will only buy Snappy for new plumbing jobs. Thank you for the video! Great job!
I’m glad this worked for you. I tested that stuff and I can see where people will like it. Me I can’t use it. Seems pretty gimmicky but if it works it works.
For a homeowner and small plumbing jobs, it works great. I can see if you are an expert at plumbing how it wouldn't be the best option. I prefer better quality, but the prices of plumbers has gotten out of control. Thanks for your response.
I used snappy traps under two sinks where the drains at the wall were roughed in too far offset for a trap to reach. They did the job, but my local inspector didn't like them and made me redo with conventional parts.
Horse feathers! Yea I know it ain't code but I've had one on my bath vanity sink for the last 16 years. Had to take it off once and the clog wasn't even in the flex pipe.
This little ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxVoi3B4CB6Oygq1-vo4OTL1M_M5JkrXif tub works perfect in our 6 x 6 shower and is easy to get in and out. Also easy to drain.
Never realized it but our bathroom sink has one of these😢 After seven years of living in this home I can honestly say it totally went unnoticeable cuz I've never had an issue with it
Compared to the amount of work I would have had to do under my cabinet, Im fine with some build up considering it was roughly 40 years ago that I replaced the pipes haha.
@@ThatFixItGuy omg funny you mention that because the drain for the garbage disposal is packed with about a foot of compacted nasty ground up food. I've snaked before but the area that's clogged is the bend from the wall to right where the outside trap opening is so I think old snake jobs from the roof might have missed it.
But I've just put this bendy drain on my bedroom bathroom about a month ago. Doesn't see much use. The person who built the cabinet put the divider right smack in middle where drain is so I had to saw zall as much as I could before I just got tired of it and used this drain. It's mostly straight thank God
I totally get that. And you are right there is not a lot of anything in this line. We were not using that sink a lot. I have seen a lot of clogging with the smooth wall as well. Depends on use and what’s getting out down it. It is not code compliant for some reason.
Have you ever used one of the snappy traps that has the flexible piece? It’s not an accordion corrugated piece. It’s smooth on the inside. It gives you good flexibility, but nothing like those junky ones that you pulled out here.
The Snappy Traps work great if needed for a solid hard to reach junction. The material and manufacturing makes a difference. They are not cheap but can save some time.
Hi nice video i have question if u can help i am installing double sink vanity in the washroom and there is only one waste pipe coming out so if i open the drywall and run another PVC pipe of the same Hight insides the wall to reach other sink is there any recommendation of how to thx
Yes you just need to open up the wall and see what is going on. You may just be able to install a double wye and run your pipe. It really just depends what they did in the wall.
Thank you for the video! I have a similar issue but have a threaded piece coming out from the wall where you would screw the p trap arm in. Can I put a slip joint 45 elbow on that?
if you glue the tail end, what happens if you want to replace it in the future? it doesn't;t come off easily? does it mean breaking it or even having to remove the wall to get access?
The tail end? I’m not sure I understand. I like slip coupling traps because they are so easy to work with. You should not have to take the male adapter off after it is installed unless something is really messed up.
It is an ez stroke saw. They are great for cutting plastic pipe. I did not realize I did not have a link for it. I added it to the description. Hope this helps.
Where is this illegal and if it is why are they sold by plumbing companies? I also wonder about the accordian pipes that are smooth on the inside. Surely that's ok I just put a new sink in a bathroom and the previous owner glued the the pipes together. So my only option is to cut, fiddle around for hours with finding a new P trap with the right length and angle and reglue...grrr. Any suggestions? The sink drain pipe is only 1 inch out of alignment with the existing p trap so I am not sure hot to align it?
By illegal I mean against plumbing code. I’m about to do another video on accordion style drains cause I had them in both bathrooms a replaced one and left the other. Starting to have drain issues with this one pretty bad now. If you want send me a picture of Facebook or email me and I will let you know what I would do with your situation.
Home Despot and Lows sells a lot of stuff that is not current code. They rely on folks not getting their work inspected...been there and, sadly, had to have an inspection. I had to remove 20 plugs and install current code plugs.
Good video, but no need to put thread sealant on mating fittings or slip rings. Unless they're damaged, they seal on their own. And the wrong thread sealant could soften rubber slip rings over time, leading to a leak.
It is true. I’m a big megaloc fan. Would not use other type of dope for this. I could not afford too many call backs when I had my business so that is how a rolled. Thank you for watching.
Wish you were in business near my house. The only plumbers I can find in our neighborhood are either crooks who charge high fees or low quality plumbers who use accordion piping to get a little more commission. Sad.
That is very true. I just did a five year experiment with this stuff and the build was bad. I like not having to mess with the plumbing after it is installed.
The drain pipe in my wall is not perfectly level.The PVC part that connects to the P trap to wall pipe 6:18 is not ideally sitting together. The pipe with the gasket thing on end which goes on top of Ptrap goes together barely but drips. I was thinking of melting it to get it to bend a little. You think that Megaloc stuff would work?
Are talking about for putting the nut and washer on together? Megalock helps good for putting those compression type drain fittings together. If you just have a drip it usually helps
@@ThatFixItGuy I think I got it. I wrapped the heck of it with teflon tape and used pipe dope on those reducer washers. I only had the yellow kind from doing the gas steel pipes on a water heater replacement so I used that. Keeping an eye on it with a bowl under to monitor for leaks.
You are using pipe dope that is good. Some gets harder than others and sucks a bit when you try to take it apart, but it does helps seal up leaks. Good job on using what you got. You can't use regular teflon on gas, but nothing wrong with the other way I don't think. Especially not drain line.
I don't see why you couldn't have oriented the P trap assembly a little more counter clockwise and then it looks like it would have went right in the 1½ drain coming out of the wall with out redoing that whole fitting at the wall?
@@ThatFixItGuy Yes. I've never used a tool like that, nor ABS pipe, but PVC pipe is designed with a slight interference fit. If you ream out to the exact diameter of the old fitting, then you'd no longer have the interference fit that assures a good seal. I came across your video because I have a similar situation, where the plumber stubbed barely out of the wall, too far over to the side, and there's not enough pipe leftover to cut back and solvent weld a new fitting. I'd either have to redo what's in the wall or drill the stub out of the in-wall elbow like this. My solution for now will be to use a 1-1/4" double offset on the sink tail piece to get a few inches over.
Why don't one of you plumber guys invent a flexible waste line adapter that will give an inch or so of play that doesn't clog? You'll make a zillion $$$.
Here is a link for 1 1/2 Size tubular. Could have totally when with this as a repair and will show it at some point. Thank you for mentioning and here is a link. amzn.to/3knUTIG
@@ThatFixItGuy I’ve seen those before. A 1” or 2” offset tailpipe would eliminate the need for an accordian tailpipe. There is a great need for slight offsets especially with pedestal sinks. Somebody is going to make millions if they just make it. I saw a 1” offset pipe but it was metal and $80. Yikes.
I have asked the same question many of times! Some states have different plumbing code and that could be a factor. But these easy type fixes are big money makers for both the place selling them and the plumbers that have to change them out.
@@ThatFixItGuy If I were in the plastics industry I would easily design one and make millions of $$. But for now, I'm looking for them to make one. It's difficult working inside a pedestal sink where they are most needed.
I hate to admit it, but I have used these flexible pipes and I know its not right. But when you are low on money, you just do what you can do. But happy to say, I fixed it at a later time.
I get it. Not my favorite stuff. I just replaced the last one in my house this week. The price difference is not that much if you do that yourself. Glad you got it hooked up.
Make sure you ream every piece of pipe you cut, it leaves a rough edge where hair will collect over time and cause a blockage. Otherwise a job well done! Those socket savers are the cats ass 👍
illegal or not, when you realize that new replacement sink you you just dropped in on the caulk and you don't want to mess with that, and then you have another "FUCK !" moment when you see that hole off from the original, you just want to pull out your last strand of hair, then you run to lowes and grab one of those suckers. Done - at least until you can properly do the work.
I get what your saying. This is from a plumbing code point of view. Sometimes we just want the job done. I like giving people options and are not that much more involved. Thanks for your comments.
All that crap when just a new flexi would of been fine........ The old saying - " Baffle them with bullshit " is very well in use in an industry that can cut plastic pipe and sniff glue......

Compared to the amount of work I would have had to do under my cabinet, Im fine with some build up considering it was roughly 40 years ago that I replaced the pipes haha.

Very professional job installing the plastic covers to cover up where the plumbing lines come out of
😂. I’ve had some comments that people thought the foam was a bit over kill. That with the covers I liked how it turned out.
It’s motivational seeing someone take pride in what they do!
I like to make things look pretty.
I talking about the socket saver, can you use it on metal?
No unfortunately. Would be awesome if it would work on metal.
Nice I hate that Home Depot suggests people use them. I recommend using sch 40 p traps made by Genova.
Totally agree those accordion fittings are a joke.
I use something similar for gutter downspouts and they clog up with leaves.
That is a good call.

Thanks fix it guy!
@Tutorial Tim did you install it?
@@ThatFixItGuy this is what was already installed in the apartment im renting. there's a nice crack in the crevice of that accordion looking pipe

You can put a plastic female adapter on that then you can 45 or 22 from there.
Technically you aren't supposed to have more than one slip joint after the trap, at least according to our local code.

Not on ABS pipe.
Thanks for the tips Brian! Plumbing made easy!
A couple small things made a big difference here.
Hey Brian that was neat, I had never heard of a tool like that thanks 👍
Thanks Britt I will do a review on them soon and give a couple of demos. They are nice in a pinch.
what kind of blade did you use to cut the end of the marvel adapter off at the start? will any saw blade work/ hand saw?

If they are illegal, why do stores sell them? The fact that they are sold in stores suggests that they are not illegal.
Try to pass a plumbing inspection with one of those installed. Against code=illegal to me.

How can Amazon sell these flexible drain pipes if they are illegal?
Lots of places sell them. I have aasked this question many times

What if you had gavinized metal? And not plastic?
Cut into the wall and no hub band some abs or pvc and work from there.
