Trying to finish up all the trench work and end the misery as soon as possible. Tired of waking up to a dust-filled, grimy house... Dano gave us his smaller chipper to pick away at the smaller, more fragile areas. Chris is picking around the freon pipes here.
Below is the super-deep hole where the drain goes underground. It's to the left of the foundation beam and has to move to the right and back toward the back of the house.
Chris is cutting out the framework in the wall where the vent pipe will now have go up.
The drain hole, even deeper, and you can see the beginning of the pipe work being stretched up and to the right.
The drain pipe is to the upper right. To the left is the new piping.
Ricardo and Clyde are back. Chipping away more slab and ready to finish the water pipes, vent, drain, and fix our little freon mishap.
View from above - you can see the drain pipe has been moved from the upper right (where Ricardo's hands are) to the other side of the beam (see the Y in the PVC there in the bottom of the trench). And the vent pipes have been put in place.
Since our sink is in the island, we're doing the "island vent method" for the drain to keep the stink and gross out, as pictured in the diagram below.
Here's a look at all the pretty new stuff from above - pretty new copper!
Fixing the freon line.
Add a little pipe insulation...
Those pink strings in the rectangle around the pipe are where we'll build a pony wall behind the island to house the pipes.
Beaz takin a peak... is this done yet?
