Sewer and Water Connection

The sewer and water connections are made below the front foundation wall to the utilities in the street. In this case, the plumber had to dig 15 feet down to reach the sewer! Once the sewer line is visually located, the rest of the excavation around the line must be done by hand. The connection is made by drilling a hole into the sewer and attaching a rubber gasket with a huge "o" ring. The new waste line from the house fits into the rubber gasket connector.
