I install a 2 way if it's shallow. If it's deep I install 2 combos aimed at each other so that when jetting, you don't leave any debris in between. If I've got plenty of space and the job is a "good" one then I actually install wyes. Wyes make for some easy drain cabling or jetting. It also makes it pretty idiot proof for the drain cleaner. You never know, it might be my guy that comes back out years later to clean it.

I don't make the codes I just have to follow them. See the words in the direction of flow, that all I need to know.

(4) would over-ride 707.6. So the question remains why two combos cant serve as your approved two way C.O. at the building drain/sewer junction

Ask the inspector Ron and explain why you want to put the combos and I bet he will approve it.

Ron · 07-09-2009, 11:12 PM

Back to Back combos are not an approved type of two way cleanout.

What code do you guys use again?

Ron · 07-09-2009, 11:13 PM

It has come up many times in CED classes and they are not allowed .

Ron · 07-09-2009, 11:14 PM

Oregon Specialty Code. UPC with Oregon amendments.

TheMaster · 07-09-2009, 11:15 PM

Ron · 07-09-2009, 11:19 PM

Answer is, one risk the chance of joe smuck running a cable the wrong way, and breaking toilets,

Amendment to Oregon code:

All cleanouts oriented in the opposite direction of flow must be encased in concrete with an approved lockable cover. Cover shall have in legible writing with raised or stamped letters the following statement: "Keep yer friggin grubby handyman hands off this cleanout!"
