Hi all,
Looking for some suggestions about how I get 22mm copper pipes around/through a joist (97mm).
Notching on top isn't an option as notch would be too deep. I think I can go through middle via drilling holes but plumber is talking about not having enough space to get joins in and solder. Going under and up - plumber again saying he would need to go back to T, get straight section in, then down and back up other side of joist - then he was concerned about introducing an airlock.
Pipes come into the room from a T set back about 12 inches then there would be the joist where the 2 pipes come in and it Ts off again on the opposite side of where the joist should be.
Any thoughts on best approach would be appreciated.
