TESTING PLUMBING for Rough-In Inspection: with PROBLEMS and FIXES - DIY Plumbing

DIY Plumbing - I finally got all of the rough plumbing finished in the house.  Now I have to test the water lines and the drain lines to make sure there are no leaks.  In my area, rough plumbing inspections require a pressure test of the water lines at 100 psi for 15 minutes and a water test on the drain lines with a 3 foot head (for residential) for 15 minutes.  I live in NC, and the code is based on the IRC.

While testing, I ran into a few problems.  Nothing major.  I learned that threaded fittings are not my strong point!  

This is a DIY project.  I did all the above slab rough plumbing for our new house.  I am NOT a licensed plumber!!!

Thanks for watching, and keep following along to see the progress of the house.
