House was full of hackery...they need more wax.........Below that tee....gota love that old cast iron pipe.........almost as bad as the old galvanized that splits on the seems............![]()
Look at the trap. The waste outlet is higher than the continuous waste. This is the second one in this apartment building I've come across. We fixed the last one and these tenets move out at the end of the month. I just needed to get it draining till then.Looks like something i'd never do but I don't see anything illegal unless there's a garbage disposal to the left. I hate tubular pipe, it's for handy hacks

That's the laundry line where the back up occurred. I didn't take the time to really look at it well, but one side was higher than the other, like they had two washers? Here's the kicker.... The main backed up from there, the first floor. Main line laid on the floor from the back of the house to where my pvc clean out was; 15' from the front. Just before my clean out there was a 3x2 tee on it's back, went into an 1-1/2 pressure tee that was bushed to 3/4 and capped with some sort of garden hose contraption to cap that and up to a trapped deep sink. I can't explain it. The main backed up out of the second highest non checked fixture.What's up with that u-turn drain?
Looks like something one of my property management company would do.I hope I get this one.
Flap from a pvc check valve. The original plumber was a tad sloppy with his glue, sealed it shut. At least he had the direction right.I dont know what i am looking at.
