Saturday August 22nd. Time for some plumbing work.
The waste pipe was near grade and our plan was to move the toilet, so out comes the old pipe. |
|
That big tree had roots everywhere! | |
Finally, everything cut out, and the wall opening ready for the new pipe | |
Almost ready, a few more roots | |
How's that for a twisted mess of pipe. | |
A nice straight section of pipe will replace that mess. | |
That's it, we're connected again. | |
Back to the interior. We'll start at the highest point, the kitchen. | |
Carol cutting pipe. | |
The kitchen vent heads over to the bath area | |
Vanity, toilet, and tub drains set. | |
That's it, the waste pipes are done! | |
We decided to try PEX tubing for the water.
I kinda like it. We ran 2 long runs under the floor, and just tapped in where we needed water. |
|
A few taps for the vanity and toilet. | |
And the tub connections too. | |
A quick pressure test, and nothing leaks! | |
Our old well doesn't seem to work? It was rumored we shared a well with a neighbor.
A few minutes of digging proved that false, and we have our very own PLUGGED WELL POINT! |
|
I found the well, and the water is about 6 feet from the TOP of the well pipe, not good.
We finally got it going, read the story below |

Our well story coing soon! |
