This sucks

Over the weekend I tackled another project that I had been putting off.  I needed to connect the plumbing vent for the basement bathroom into the stack vent.  The only place that was possible and code compliant was in the attic.  I debated just running the new vent through the roof but I really didn't feel like cutting holes in our roof in the middle of winter.  Below is a picture of me in the attic attaching the vent into the existing vent. Not pictured is my overwhelming hatred of this task.


On a side note my reventing of the kitchen vent from earlier in the month seems to have gone well since there is no longer a frost build-up in the kitchen area.

On another side note...<sarcasm> thanks for the heads-up <sarcasm>  To all you handy guys viewing this blog, how come no-one noticed I roughed in the shower on the wrong wall.  I put it on the wall opposite of the door which is especially a no-no since we will be just putting a curtain in.  Thankfully PEX is incredibly easy to move and this little mistake will only cost me about an hour.

  1. That does suck. That makes a very good argument for using PEX.
