Thank you for recording an posting this valuable educational video

Wondering about the trap for the whole house? But sometimes the first guy 80 years ago just puts in an extra trap , so then you go " ill do that too" . ive replaced alot of cast iron pipe and the joke around here in Cincinnati, is that most of the guys running the pipe were drunk after lunch anyways. It explains alot of the stuff you see when your tearing walls replacing it. Thanks for the video

Nice job, great to watch

Twenty year back I'd do it the same, excellent work. 2023 having delt with tenants and clogs I use a router chamfering bit. Doing both the interior and exterior of the pipe before gluing. Old literature will indicate the need to use a pocket knife for the chamfering. A little plastic burr can hang-up on those flushable wipes.

Cast iron hubs, can be notched with a sawzall with Cast blade, and-or grinder. Once notched, remove pieces carefully, leaves you a flush end, no-hub band process to follow. Much better than any id/inside bushings, that leak. Couple cuts, hub removed very easily.

Some nothing other Teflon tape but you can't tighten it too tight, everyone got a different opinion,

Chain cutter is hit or miss with old pipe. Sometimes the pipe shatters and doesn't leave a clean end. It would have been alright to use in this job though.

You wouldn’t need to us a rubber fernco to connect the old yellow 1970s Genova usa sch 30 pvc to the sch40 pvc you installed, Genova usa makes a adapter coupling.

You usually place them on a slight angle so if the sewer ever backs up you don’t dump as much sewage/water on the floor when you open the plug.
