    The fittings push apart because the hub of the fittings are tappered meaning the further in the pipe goes into the fittings the tighter the fittings get and that’s why you have to hold it until the glue and primer set up

    10:11 b/c the chemical reaction in the solvent cement that is “chemically welding/joining/bonding/melting” the 2 piles together is an exothermic reaction…..meaning it’s giving off some heat (very low amount) and it’s causing it to push back against each other, fighting….if you will while the 2 piles become one, which happens in matter of seconds; but will fully “cure” in few hrs. After few seconds, it’s “settled down” and the reaction still takes place but the push back is done.

    Good guess on pipe separation. At least that’s what I was always told is that it was thermal expansion that pushed fittings off. I thought it was interesting he used a long sweep for the lav drain. I’m not saying it’s wrong because it is technically code. I’ve always put short 90s on sink and lav trap arms. The main reason I do this is so that I only have pipe going through the drywall. The escutcheon fits better and everything looks nicer. If you use a sweep you have the hub and sometimes part of the bend coming out of the wall. As for how it drains, the reason you can’t use regular 90s or tees is because it’s a change of direction and a short fitting stops the waste before it turns so it slows it down. If you use a long sweep (effectively two 45s) or combo, you’re not stopping the flow as it changes direction. When the short 90 is on the trap arm, the waste is just coming out of the trap and traveling a few inches. So it doesn’t have any momentum to slow down anyway. I’ve never had an inspector say anything about this.

    My brother in law remodeled his whole home and when the GCs did the bathroom they had to redo shower drain as forgot to connect to DWV to house (slab on grade and was already filled with cement and tiled, DOH), then, after redid that and hooked everything up, they realized THEY DIDNT TIE INTO ORIGINAL VENTING🤦🏼🤦🏼, so, they had to add AAVs (which personally, not a fan) and called it good. Week later, bathroom sink underneath flooded bathroom, DOH, as they didn’t cement any fittings in, AND, overflow now hooked up AND the tailpiece wasn’t lining up and forced into p-trap (we talking 4 inches OFF!) and was putting pressure on other piles and without glue, it broke out, 🤦🏼
    Can ya guess who the plumber was…..😉

      It's required here in Minnesota that the passive radon vent pipe be insulated in the attic. See section 501.9 of the standard. standards.aarst.org/CCAH-2020-0523/15/index.html#zoom=z

    Nice vid, and a tip for anyone dealing w/ purple primer (pro or DIYer).
    1:01 & 9:23 ¹ see that purple pain in the butt primer in this shot; taped to the solvent cement, like everyone does….
    This fine for a rough in job, but for all that’s holy; if on a finished job inside someone’s house (regardless if they have $20 dollar fixtures/appliances/etc….. to a million dollar bathtub, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, cover your work surfaces with a good heavy duty no leak canvas drop cloth when using purple primer (or just use clear cleaner if code allows in jurisdiction), b/c the worst thing that can do is get that primer inside a tub (which Halle Ed to my parents new jet tub 🤦🏼, and my sister’s new free standing soaker tub 🤦🏼 . And the soaker was $8500 🤦🏼) or countertop, floor, etc… BECAUSE THAT STUFF DONT COME OFF😉

      @@AmericanRadonMitigation yeah, and even the carpenter protector sticky stuff would work and I what I use for protecting tubs etc…, as ppl love toeing tools inside the tubs 🤦🏼, or using subountertops and countertops as work benches….again 🤦🏼; but if using carpet protector, gotta be careful as some materials dont work well and will “delaminate” the materials when start peeling off to remove, especially Happens on laminated cabinets (edge banding can pull up) and the stuff from IKEA is horrid when used w/ sticky carpet protector to protect say a ikea vanity or kitchen sink as that can remove the “paint & wood finish” if rip off w/o treating like newborn baby.

    why did you insulate a radon vent????

    • @AmericanRadonMitigation
      @AmericanRadonMitigation  2 роки тому +1

      According to the standard, insulation is required if the piping is subject to freezing temperatures and the formation of condensation.

      I’m no expert. However, when running a 3-inch pipe with an outside diameter of 3.5 inches through a 2x4 wall, you will always end up sacrificing the top plate. I believe that's why Mark attached the 2x6 to the top plate. Ideally, it would run through a 2x6 wall so the piping does not touch the drywall, though. This also prevents the wall from turning into a base drum when you activate a passive radon system by adding a radon fan in the attic.

    Is there some new PVC where you don't have to hold it for like 10 seconds? I always have the problem with a Hydraulics out on me after I put it in the fitting. And I don't know what you're doing running the job and drilling I never saw those two go hand in hand before

    • @AmericanRadonMitigation
      @AmericanRadonMitigation  10 місяців тому

      I always have to hold the fitting and pipe for what seems like forever to prevent them from coming apart. On close inspection, it doesn't look like his are pushing apart, though. I wonder if Mark is using fast-setting cement.
