The standpipe is 2 1/2" OD, 2" ID. At least it's a standard size I can get in PVC. Once I get the old pipe out and the drain cleared, what should I use to cement the PVC into the cast iron? Epoxy? Mount a strap on the wall for support? Last edited by crayzkirk; 11-03-2019 at 09:08 AM.. |

I would just make sure the pipe is in the floor drain and secure it to the wall with straps. There's a p-trap on the floor drain so no sewer gas issues. If it backs up again in the future, you'll want easy access, so no concrete/epoxy etc.

So did you get that POS pipe out and the washer draining again?

I don't think POS is a strong enough word. I think it's leaded in. I tried to get the clean out plug and ended up tearing the head off the brass plug. I've got the plug pretty much destroyed and it won't budge. The drain is right next to the basement wall so I have limited access.
I'm tempted to use heat to see if I can get the plug out. If I can do that, I might just put an threaded adapter in and a 45 degree to get it to vertical. Hoping someone has posted some new pictures in the boob thread... I need something to cheer me up. Last edited by crayzkirk; 11-06-2019 at 07:40 PM.. |

Precision plumbing, I've had good luck with them. They have a fleet of plain white trucks and are good with older homes. A bunch of experienced plumbers on staff that like to do more jobs rather then overcharge. They handle a lot of the sewer/ water line warranty shit for kcmo.

I'm just not good at plumbing I've tried to fix things myself and had to call the plumber to fix my failure. If I have to spend some cash on them then I guess that's the way it's going to be.

I have destroyed 4 metal cutting blades... The brass clean out is a real PITA... I mean, it should come out fairly easily? I mean, it's only 55 years old. Last edited by crayzkirk; 11-06-2019 at 10:58 PM.. |
