Re: Rough Plumbing
Plumbing is looking good! Don't forget the insulation and I'm not a fan of OSB, but everyone knows this already.

Re: Rough Plumbing
I went ahead and slapped up a couple of nail plates for you, so that the inspector wouldn't hollar.

Re: Rough Plumbing
It looks ok but, I would add 3/4"air chambers to the 1/2" risers especially on the shower valve. Single levers are notorious for water hammer.

Re: Rough Plumbing
Every outlet has to have an airchamber here, and you have to provide 24" airchambers at the top of all risers.

Re: Rough Plumbing
It isn't code here but, it should be. I always believe in adding them. I have seen way too many houses around here that are plumbed in only 1/2" copper, you close a faucet and the echo sounds like thunder.

Re: Rough Plumbing
Air chambers will fill with water within 2 months! Waste of time/material!
With city water {100# or so}, install a pressure reducer. Set at 50-60#. Codes say 80# is MAX, for just that reason. 60# is PLENTY. Another tidbit... noise is also caused by the burr left by cutting copper pipe! Water swirls inside pipe and w/over 80#, sounds like a train passing thru the house. |
