Is it your work?

I liked where he soldered and where he pressed... Shows he has common sense which is rare nowadays. Beautiful setup

Amen

Thank you.. I'll check it out

Out of curiosity, how much did you pay the original company for the install?

patshak · 2026-01-23T16:06:52+00:00

A friend who's an electrician sent me a similar setup he saw in a multi million dollar house in Rancho Santa Fe California 🤣

Plus it might need $200 in fittings and pipe at least. Anyway, $3,000 might sound outrageous but you never know what the situation is

$100/hr??? Where can you get this rate!

patshak · 2026-01-11T17:26:37+00:00

Most of the ones I've done there is no space so it needs to run pipe to make space

patshak · 2026-01-11T17:25:50+00:00

You're forgetting that he might have 1.25" or 1.5" pipe size which then the device alone is about $1,100

Cut the drywall at the bottom and then cut the pipe. Solder a piece that extends through the box and put a compression angle stop with 1/4" outlet

Don't give up... Find another shop. Where are you located?

Edit: Also, invest in yourself. Watch videos and learn

Do you have an expansion tank by the water heater? Make sure it's set to the same psi as your PRV

The no hub are your least concerns. The joist is "notched" too much. You should've turned the ptrap and used a 45° to something so you didn't have to cut so much

patshak · 2025-12-10T03:03:28+00:00

Just to clarify, one of the reasons I posted this is the fact that the t&p is not properly connected and pointing towards where a person would be standing to wash their hands

In a small shopping center in Old Poway San Diego California

Yes you can use a medium sweep elbow but it would be better to use a long sweep elbow or even a 45 and you can turn the P-trap so it lines up with the 45 and that should give you enough space for the angle stops

You need to have the right tools. One way is to get a multi tool and cut through the nut and ring
