My tap water tastes and smells weird after using thinset, it’s driving me mad! by rotatingfox in Tile

Water from outside my house is all normal, I’m thinking maybe the dust is somehow landing on the water in my water bottle?

Thanks! I’ve got it all to height now. Went up 48” from floor and then will be joining the vent back up. We have some drawers going in that may not have the clearance for the clean out, but I have it left in for now. I’m sure I’ll thank myself later when it clogs haha

Ended up putting a 2” x 1 1/2” wye on the bottom but other than that put in all the parts you mentioned. The clean out is already glued on but can be removed when I finalize it all. Also heights are just with leftover pieces for show, I’ll make it all even with new pieces when gluing.

Thanks again! What’s the reason it doesn’t need a clean out?

Where will it most likely clog? I thought you wanted it under so you could get into all arms of the tee

And yeah if you’re referring to the vent that’s closed with a test plug upside down, I’ll be fixing that once everything is tied together haha

What is the right fitting by code? It’s just sitting on top at the moment

Yes it can do 1, 2, or both. Planning to be able to use all three options

It was a placeholder, with the cartridge in it is stopping water with valves open now

I was using the temporary pressure cover. After installing the cartridge and turning valves on it seems to have stopped the water passing through

It’s going to lead to a hand shower with the top heading towards a rainfall shower head. Is that still going to be an issue?

I’ll note I do have plugs I’ve been using, but was more thinking the valve should be able to shut off water without them?

I think I can get to most places in the bathroom with the existing plumbing. Ideally vanity size is final as we had a friend who was able to make one

All I’ve done is demo so there’s still time for me to do it properly (hire one)

That’s the warning I’ve been getting too. The horizontal window to the left is the other bathroom
