• I've watched almost all of their videos, but I don't remember what kind of septic system they're using. Anyone?

• Just because you don't the box for the Vanity doesn't mean you cant return it unless that is a requirement from the store. I have bought numerous things over the years and returned without boxes or packaging. Good job coming to the home stretch of using your house bathroom (even though the videos are way behind on time) !!!⚓️

• Oh my goodness those stainless cinch plumbing rings are doomed to fail!! Why use them? You have a whole house to do. Vega pureflow with bronze fittings is the way to go!! Plus they sell a power crimper for it!

• Those dead end pipes in the fresh water, code or not, are a serious hazard. Bacteria will grow in there.

• After building my own house,the only thing I cannot take any credit for was the plumbing tie-in's. I roughed it out, then called in the professionals to tie it together. At which time I also had them install the manifold and wire up the 5 zone valves. That was 15 years ago, and turned out to be a 2 thumbs up decision.

• HEY. STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING RIGHT NOW. Your PEX plumbing is going to fail. All of it is going to fail.

  You are using the wrong fittings for those cinch rings. Cinch rings can ONLY be used with brass fittings. Your nylon fittings need copper crimp rings, NOT cinch rings. DO NOT WALL IN. Go get a crimp tool and copper crimp rings and do it right; massive water damage in a timber frame home is a terrible idea, and these fittings WILL begin to leak inside the walls.

• I get the feeling you don’t know the difference between a stack vent and an air admittance valve. One is to vent sewer gases to the outside. The air admittance valve is to prevent the traps from being sucked out due to a low pressure. It allows air to come in to equalize pressure.

• if you are using PEX fittings, do yourself a favour and use the brass fittings instead of plastic and the compressing copper rings ….. you'll thank yourself in 10 years….

• You could donate the vanity to a Restore or Salvation Army store & write it off at full value on your taxes, under charitable donations ! 🙂
