90 degree horizontal elbow for lav in hospital

[jar546]

Even the real pros are not perfect. This is actually the first plumbing defect I ever found with these plumbers in a hospital.

No clean out in site.

May not need one.

clean out required for a change of direction less than 135 degrees? porque?

 

[skipharper]

Limited info equals limited answer--o, maybe your in upc land--Where more than one change of direction occurs in a run of piping, only one cleanout shall be required for each 40 feet (12 192 mm) of developed length of the drainage piping. Actually propably a vent to begin with.

That's not a 90 degree elbow.

Now, Pack, let's not get too technical.

well, words mean things.

also, if that is 2 inch cast iron in the photo, then the short sweep is legal in that application (assuming it is a fixture drain).
