I used to work as a plumbers helper and you only have to know 3 things to be a plumber. Hot on right, ...
Gee, Travis, Hot goes on the right, eh? That must be why you're an EX-plumber's helper.
(aside: the way I learned the joke is, the three things to know are: hot is on the left, "water" runs down hill, and payday is Friday.)
Personally, I would also stick with copper. You slip an insulating sheet behind the joint and get the joint done quickly. But that is your choice. I also agree with the guys about cutting out the cast iron and using the flexible rubber coupling to transition to ABS. I did something like that back in Edmonton when I took out our main soil stack, which was 4" of cast iron. Taking it out was a pain in the backside, but replacing it with ABS was SOOO much easier than trying to adapt the cast iron to my renovation work.
Wow...what happened to Hobbs? Why the influx of new residents? Is it retirees?...We are currently in a housing boom. The town has a population of 25,000, but they are building 1500 houses this year alone.
