I've been a plumber 22 years. I think this is the first time a non plumber youtube video taught me anything. Usually they are full of bad information. I never thought about using a saniflow gravity feed. I've ran across back outlet toilets a few times but the saniflow is a good idea because it's readily available. All the other info was correct too. Except the vent. You can vent a whole bathroom on 1-1/2. But it never hurts to go bigger on a vent. Great job. I'm going to check out a few more videos.
I don't believe he's a non plumber. Look at how nice and neat he ran the pex. That's the work of someone who has a good amount of experiance. Edit: after watching the rest of the video he's absolutely a plumber. The fact he put in a vent and knew the terminology of the type of vent he used. This guy has lots of years of experience
Hello fellow do it yourself plumbers. Quick tip. Store your pvc glue upside down. The glue will seal the air off from entering the can and it will keep forever
John I have to give you an A++ on your Saniflo install. It makes me smile to see your creativity to make it adapt to your situation. As a Plumbing Contractor of 32 years in California I have installed several of these systems and they work very well. I even installed one to a similar situation as yours, it made the homeowner super happy because the alternative would have cost thousands of dollars more. The only draw back to the Saniflo toilet bowl is it doesn't have a very big puddle to poop in so be prepared to have a scrub brush handy. It's a small price to pay for the money saver this product provides. The change out of that flush valve was pure genius and will help with the skid marks. I will be installing a Saniflo system in my shop in Portugal very soon where my wife and I will retire. Yes, they have units for international use. Good Luck on your future projects!
I've been contemplating your comment on the size of the 'puddle'. You suppose increasing the 'weir' height with some 3" elbow angling would increase the 'puddle' size without seriously lessening the flush-ability? This may be too abstract with only words to describe.
I was searching for a way to put a toilet in my basement without cutting the concrete, or shelling out $$$ for a macerator. This is exactly what I was wondering if I could do! Thank you for the video.
I swear this smartphone can read my mind . Yesterday I was thinking that plumbing and electrical are not my strong points along with tile or cabinetry . I am looking at various properties and most will be just raw land . Videos like these are gold to me as this is totally doable anywhere . Thanks for the video .
That’s a standard toilet in uk, they’re just about all rear exit, 99%. We then fit a multiquick connector of whatever angle we need, it’s fairly rare to find a bottom exit is needed and I’ve never seen one incorporated into the pan like the US have, we have the rear exit and then a drop connector. Most blockages are in the U-bend in the pan cos that’s the narrowest point in the sewer system. If it gets past that then it’s all good, until it hits the tree roots outside or the disposable diaper that’s unwrapped itself out in the main line. Good video,👍
Great idea! Didn’t know of rear discharge toilets… been pondering how to set up the plumbing in the concrete slab before installing a metal building. This will work and I don’t need to worry about placement!
John, Thank you for this video. I have one of these toilets in my home my parents lived in. This toilet was not in my home as I grew up, but was installed long after I moved out for Army Sevice & adulthood. Now I own this childhood home with all the changes my dad made to accommodate 6 other siblings. I really appreciated all of your very educational video help. No pex lines here. but if it had been around before my dad passed away, it would be here.
Man this is awesome. I am contemplating building a 30x60 metal building. Now I know I can go ahead and pour the slab and not worry about where the toilet floor drain needs to be
Add you a pipe near where you may want to put in the toilet, a shallow as you can 4" schedule 40 PVC pipe, turn a 4" 90 up, short piece of 4" in that, and put it 1/2" under grade of the slab near or in the proposed wall, cover its opening with many layers of duct tape so they can finish the slab and you can break out the thin layer over it later, then using a 3" hub to 4 ID adapter add a 3" tee sunk into it, send your vent up, and run 3" over to that when your ready and add your toilet from nearby.
I dont blame you. The music these days is crap, and the majority of ppl fight over which pronouns they want to be called/which of the 1700 sexes they are and which bathroom to use.
@JOHNDANIEL1 George Knapp would disagree lol great video but quick question... has has this system done since? And was this to the main drain without the blade system that shops all that good stuff up? If it's not you might be from the future!!! FYI
Has been working perfect now almost 2 years. The toilet is above grade over concrete and the sewer is out back about 30 feet away that is 23" lower than this toilets output. So this is flowing horizontal out the wall, down into a Tee with a cleanout, into 4" pipe then 18-20 more feet to the septic all with 1/8 to 3/16" fall. If I was to break concrete I would be breaking 8 to 9 feet long of 8" deep concrete then going through a 30" deep footing that is 16" thick to install a toilet. $4800 and 35 hours work for 2 guys, verses me installing this $400 in 8 hours. Basic math!
Yup up in Grove,OK I got a doublewide I have no intention of ever goin back under there again unless I have to- already put the hot /cold pex lines inside on the ceiling, sort of industrial or shop look like you did- no more frozen pipes! Now this solves my drain line problems for the toilets! All the floors are being sealed and re framed with framing lumber on top and plywood and pallet wood flooring. One by one all the drain lines will also exit the building through the walls, not the floor.
That is AWESOME! The rear discharge toilet could solve all kinds of slope/flow problems. I don't know if they're code in Massachusetts, but I'm going to find out. If they aren't, I may just forget to inform anybody that it hasn't been here since forever.
I had 1 a couple years ago still works good easy to Install does it all pumps it all out. Only draw back is cost. About a 1000 just for toilet 2 hundred to install.
Have mercy! Thank You!!! I never knew there was such thing as a back outlet toilet! I've done a lot of plumbing work in my life, including fixing and/or replacing many toilets and never heard of these! Fellow Texan here, (Ft. Worth.) This opens many option for me! In all the off-grid / homesteading videos I've watched; I haven't heard of anyone going this route. I'm surprised because the only thing wrong with this is the size. In all the homesteading / off-grid videos water source doesn't seem to be a problem. This just seems soooo much better than a composting toilet!
@@JOHNDANIEL1 Hoping to get out of here in the next couple of years. It's already zombie land in so many ways. I have been looking around Commanche. Sooo many people have moved here from Florida and California. Overcrowded and meth everywhere.
Nice system you've put together there to save a little money. I've seen rear outlet toilets that come complete for about $300. Another option is (and this will give you the fanciest barn toilet in the county😁) you can also get a wall hung toilet system for about $400 if you have a little more money and don't want to put a system together from various parts. All viable options. Also, if that particular Fernco fitting is not available, you can take a regular 3" Fernco and soak it in hot water for about 5 minutes. The rubber will become super pliable and allow it to easily stretch over the toilet boss. The water doesn't have to be that hot, definitely not boiling.
Thamks, this rear outlet toilet idea of yours with parts list helps me get past a concrete dividing wall in the basement by going through a wall to a closet upstairs and then dropping the pvc drain pipe down pitching iit toward the main sewer line and hooking it up. It works out well for the vent too cause the main vent is in that same closet and there is a T to tap into that main vent which is available.
This is awesome. I'm going to plumb a garage in a house I just bought and was worried about having to cut the slab. I'm totally fine with exposed plumbing. Much easier and less headache.
Great info and vid but I take exception to the "First you'll ever see" part. We have been installing toilets like this in basements and other places with concrete floors for years. So A+ on your vid and it is great for folks who did not know this was an option but for old hands it isn't new. Again, that does not change what a good job you did with it, it will help lots of folks. Keep it up!
Glad you finally made it back into Texas and got all your stuff over here can't wait till you get the rest of the stuff set up and start making videos I know you going to create some good ones later man
Thanks for the install of this toilet system the only thing is the y fitting. I have to do to make code is turn it to the side. they don’t allow you to use the y fittings up right like you have.
I wonder if you could do this with a regular floor mounted back outlet toilet. They use a regular toilet flange on the back. It might require a 90 ell to turn down before going horizontal.
FYI you can get canadian solar or Trina solar panels ised in a commercial solar farm used for $30 to $35 from Santan solar. 250w each. They are 3x5 and mount really well on home depot super strut with their blue slide in nuts, a bolt, and square washer
This is exactly the same as what we use in Ireland, Scotland,Wales, England and most of Europe. They never clog, the waste internals is way bigger. The American toilets are years behind in plumbing. 🇮🇪🇺🇸
You Sir are a " common sense " Genius ! ( not so common anymore , I'm afraid ) I just came across Your channel while surfing ... quite impressive I must admit !!!!
Dear John! Nice to see another new video of you, even if it's just a video about a toilet bowl. I've been waiting longingly for a new video from you! Greetings from Lower Austria!
I'm a retired plumbing contractor with 48 years of hands-on experience, but I NEVER enjoyed toilets, so when I retired 15 years ago, I switched to using a composting toilet, which has only 2 parts and one is the seat. Never been happier and not one single problem in 15 years. Oh, by the way, my cost all-in was $7 and $5 of that was the seat.
She does so so that she can bite at my ankles. Typical border collie. They will follow you everywhere you go because they're looking for work and expect you to provide it.
Welcome back John good to see you out in about doing what you gotta get done I hope and pray you are blessed you and yours and your family and thank you for doing what you do you make my life simpler
Just the video I was looking for diy plumbing to own man made sceptic tank is the next video we need please .can you do video of it completed and how you ran it off you explain thing’s perfectly just found your channel . Was hard to find this
If you're going to lube that fitting going onto the toilet use hairspray, it'll slide right on and then harden up and seal perfectly. That foam, how flammable is it?
Believe it or not but these toilets are quite common in Italy and Greece. Since homes are built with concrete columns, beams and decks plumbing cannot be installed in the ways we do things in the states. Some places run the sewer line straight out the wall and down the outside of the house. Other times they will bring up a concrete drilling and cutting company to bore holes in the concrete decks to run sewage lines within the home if the home is located in a freeze zone. What I despise is the fact that the bowl does not fill up as the toilets in the States. Net result you need to keep a toilet brush to wash down the bowl after "heavy use". Cost of the bowl only start at around 50 euro for something basic and around 20 euro for a plastic tank. What is nice is that you can go with a more expensive flush valve that has a split button, front half is for light use and back button for heavy use. Saves on water usage.
My toilet is mounted elevated 14 inches and flushes THROUGH a standard electric under-sink disposer. 3 inch disposer inlet boots right onto my 3 inch building drain, with a 2 inch vent just upstream. It turns everything into liquid mush and pumps it slightly uphill 120 feet to my septic tank. It has a check valve first in line after the disposer, which lies on its side. It's been working GREAT for 13 years now. I'm in my mid-70s, and frankly, having an elevated toilet makes mounting and dismounting almost automatic. That translates to both comfort and safety. I live alone in North Texas. I can't be hurtin' myself, especially buck naked! I also have and use a composting toilet, which uses ZERO water.
@@JOHNDANIEL1 Oh, I don't know . . . I'm east of I-35 and got no rules (unincorporated, county) and a couple of old-timers, go by the names of Mr. Smith & Mr. Wesson, keep the peace.
I like those incinerator toilets. Wow, sure is a nice property there John. Make some RV spots to rent out, I might need one soon. You need some help. That's too much for one guy to handle.
@@JOHNDANIEL1 I love that. There will always be a bond between Texas and Tennessee. I grew up in the town that was the birthplace of Davy Crockett. Tennessee Volunteers and Texas go way back.
Great Job ‼️ Nice Step by Step Detail and Looking Forward to your Future Vids, especially the E-Bike. The New Property seems to be a GEM. Sub from California 👍👍⬆️
When doing this exact setup and running my vent and stubbing off like you did for a sink can I run two sinks this way? One on each side of the wall? And when doing so I would just shoot over to a p trap under the sink and then it would shoot over to the vent tube?
You would use a 2 x 1-1/2 Sanitary DWV cross in its vent pipe. amzn.to/3Qw8OyJ and you can run 2 sinks, just off set their drains under the cabinets a bit to make it work.
That might be fine for your use!! If your in a home and want to add one in your basement, you will need the sewage tank and injector pump to put your waste in the ststem!!! I've installed a few in my day!!! 😆 🤣 😂
His setup is tying into a regular stack drain line. This method is perfect if you want to move a toilet but leave the origional toilet flange in the same place.
Hey Hi, just so you know, myself not being a big Giveme'nt fan, those new fangle gov't toilets do have the advantage of saving water, but if you happen to be a big load kinda guy, simply hold down the handle and all the water will drain for that particular flush. So lets say a little child needs to do a gee-wiz, why drain all that water which is not needed. Just saying.
I have a cape cod style house, the joists on the top floor are 2x6s so being only 5 and a half feet tall I can't run a toilet drain through them. I don't want a maceration style toilet which is why I am not putting a 2nd bath in the basement (hung sewer on wall-would have to pump up). This back out design I could run the waste lines in the knee wall crawlspace-insulating behind the lines, and down the old chimney chase. Expensive toilets, but viable solution
Hello from the quiet cool Ozarks! Another video of value! Hope your well and enjoying your day. does the toilet drain flow to a sewer or hold talk or is it pumped to a hold tank?

Cost of the bowl only start at around 50 euro for something basic and around 20 euro for a plastic tank. What is nice is that you can go with a more expensive flush valve that has a split button, front half is for light use and back button for heavy use. Saves on water usage.
That is some great information and will be very helpful. Thanks for sharing
Can you install this in a basement using a Studor vent?
Thank you!!! Brilliant!
flushing twice used more water ... thankyou environhutz
Ty . I really learned a lot

My toilet is mounted elevated 14 inches and flushes THROUGH a standard electric under-sink disposer. 3 inch disposer inlet boots right onto my 3 inch building drain, with a 2 inch vent just upstream. It turns everything into liquid mush and pumps it slightly uphill 120 feet to my septic tank. It has a check valve first in line after the disposer, which lies on its side. It's been working GREAT for 13 years now.
I'm in my mid-70s, and frankly, having an elevated toilet makes mounting and dismounting almost automatic. That translates to both comfort and safety. I live alone in North Texas. I can't be hurtin' myself, especially buck naked!
I also have and use a composting toilet, which uses ZERO water.

Oh, I don't know . . . I'm east of I-35 and got no rules (unincorporated, county) and a couple of old-timers, go by the names of Mr. Smith & Mr. Wesson, keep the peace.
I like those incinerator toilets.
Wow, sure is a nice property there John. Make some RV spots to rent out, I might need one soon.
You need some help. That's too much for one guy to handle.
Me as a guy in upper East Tennessee hearing you call that hill country. Makes me snicker a little.
We had to use Hill Country since the Holler's, Slopes, and Ozarks was already taken!
@@JOHNDANIEL1 I love that. There will always be a bond between Texas and Tennessee. I grew up in the town that was the birthplace of Davy Crockett. Tennessee Volunteers and Texas go way back.
this is great!! thanks 👍
I like the ford pickup truck in the back ground
Great Job ‼️ Nice Step by Step Detail and Looking Forward to your Future Vids, especially the E-Bike. The New Property seems to be a GEM. Sub from California 👍👍⬆️
When doing this exact setup and running my vent and stubbing off like you did for a sink can I run two sinks this way? One on each side of the wall? And when doing so I would just shoot over to a p trap under the sink and then it would shoot over to the vent tube?
You would use a 2 x 1-1/2 Sanitary DWV cross in its vent pipe. amzn.to/3Qw8OyJ and you can run 2 sinks, just off set their drains under the cabinets a bit to make it work.
That might be fine for your use!! If your in a home and want to add one in your basement, you will need the sewage tank and injector pump to put your waste in the ststem!!! I've installed a few in my day!!! 😆 🤣 😂
His setup is tying into a regular stack drain line. This method is perfect if you want to move a toilet but leave the origional toilet flange in the same place.
“Rear outlet”. How poetic!! 🤠👍
Way to think outside the box, if your ok with exposed plumbing this will definitely save you some jack hammering 👍

Hey Hi, just so you know, myself not being a big Giveme'nt fan, those new fangle gov't toilets do have the advantage of saving water, but if you happen to be a big load kinda guy, simply hold down the handle and all the water will drain for that particular flush. So lets say a little child needs to do a gee-wiz, why drain all that water which is not needed. Just saying.
I have a cape cod style house, the joists on the top floor are 2x6s so being only 5 and a half feet tall I can't run a toilet drain through them. I don't want a maceration style toilet which is why I am not putting a 2nd bath in the basement (hung sewer on wall-would have to pump up). This back out design I could run the waste lines in the knee wall crawlspace-insulating behind the lines, and down the old chimney chase. Expensive toilets, but viable solution
Hello from the quiet cool Ozarks! Another video of value! Hope your well and enjoying your day. does the toilet drain flow to a sewer or hold talk or is it pumped to a hold tank?
is there a vid as to how you finish the drain and hook into the sewer system ?
