Another dishwasher straight to sewer gas. Plus this contraption, the horizontal wasn't even inserted in the other tail piece.

But you won't get any gas smell as long as the dishwasher hose has a loop in it where it will hold water,I've seen many like this work just fine as long as the hose is looped high enough

Same house, the pipe was about 1/3 in the tee! They were damn lucky not to get a guyser, I pulled it out with bare hands without force or heat!

I noticed not all have a loop. Many are just connected under. Another thing when it starts to drain it siphons all the water including what's inside the machine. When it does this the whole line is air all the way to the sewer line unless it's protected by a p-trap.

yes,if it siphons all water out you will get sewer gas smell but most times water is left in hose if looped up high

A compression valve on CPVC?????

They work just fine on cpvc,come across them alot,I will put one on in a pinch if I don't have a glue on one

 

[sparky]

I don't often hear anyone say that anything works fine when talking about cpvc.

I like cpvc pipe,before pex became popular in my area thats about all we installed for water distribution systems,just have to know how to PROPERLY install cpvc to be a hero

 

[sparky]

The only way to properly install pvc pipe is when you hook it up as a drain or pump discharge.

Lololololo

That's pretty clever actually made it water tite lololoolol

I'm still waiting for the 5$ membership for more epic winners from my own adventures...

Tango Original, Version 2021

24th floor, that'll be nice when the china no name/unapproved sprayer busts. Otherwise check out the cool bracket to close the valve with a cabinet door knob.

That sprayer is a poor mans bidet lololololo

THAT IS WHAT A PRESSURE BULGED TANK LOOKS LIKE ! A CLOSED SYSTEM WITH NO EXPANSION TANK

Why didn't the popoff valve go off before it got to the bomb stage???

 

[sparky]

If the t&p leaks for a while it can get a buildup of rust that stops it from opening.

We had a 3yr old residential boiler we installed blow a chunk of cast iron off the back a couple years ago. The t&p had corroded shut. I don't remember which control item failed, I would guess the thermostat.

You are correct grasshopper,this is why in commercial industrial buildings with boilers maintence will trip the relief valves once a month and have to note that it was done on record,this is to keep the relief valves from corroding up and becoming a ba,no not a ba but a bomb lololololo

 

[sparky]

nice Airplane 2 reference

Lololololo thanks

Looks like a bad crimp on the hot side tee, the horizontal branch.

Come on tango,at least crimp the pex correctly lololololololol

Good looking silver solder and repair work. Customer wants to leave the hole open for a few days? THANK YOU!! Nice to have that opportunity to make sure.......

I would have just soldered it,by the time "copper creep" happened it would allow another service plumber to make money off that job

 

[sparky]

He got banned.

Thank goodness,but he was good for a few laughs but it got old real quick,could that have been redwood in disguise????

 

[sparky]

Redwood was not that bad. Also, sadly I think Redwood is dead.

I sure hope not,he was a character

 

[sparky]

That was the before pic, I wasn't comfortable with that so I pushed the customer to replace all the water supply underneath. All that pressure waiting to cause water damage and I would of been the last guy there...

I was just messin with ya
