OATEY 74159 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Oatey 74159 cleanout connect to 4 inch PVC DWV pipe?
Yes. The 74159 has a 4 inch PVC hub base, so it takes 4 inch PVC DWV pipe solvent welded into the hub. It is a PVC-to-PVC connection only, so it is not a fit for cast iron or ABS lines without an appropriate transition.
2) What size is the cover on the Oatey 74159 cleanout, and what finish is it?
The cover is 6 inches and nickel finished over a 4 inch PVC hub base. That gives you a larger visible round on the floor than the pipe size, which is what you want if the cleanout lands in a finished area and you need the plate to cover the ring of patched floor around the riser.
3) Is a general purpose cleanout like the Oatey 74159 the right choice for a finished floor, or do I need a different type?
General purpose is the middle ground. The 74159 pairs a PVC hub base with a 6 inch nickel cover, so it is meant for areas where the cover will be seen but is not taking vehicle or heavy rolling loads. For a driveway, dock, or warehouse aisle, specify a heavy duty cast iron cleanout with a load rated top instead. For a concealed wall or chase cleanout, use a wall access cleanout with a round access cover rather than a floor style base like this one.
4) What part number do I order for the Oatey 4 inch PVC cleanout with the 6 inch nickel cover?
Order Oatey 74159. That is the manufacturer part number for the 4 inch PVC hub base general purpose cleanout with the 6 inch nickel cover, and it is a single configuration, so there is no finish or size option to specify when ordering.
5) Does the Oatey 74159 cleanout come with the plug and cover, or do I buy those separately?
It is sold as a cleanout assembly: the 4 inch PVC hub base and the 6 inch nickel cover together under one part number, 74159. What you still need on the job is the 4 inch PVC pipe, PVC primer and solvent cement for the hub joint, and whatever grout or patch material the floor opening calls for.
6) I manage several buildings with PVC drain lines. Can I standardize on the Oatey 74159 for 4 inch floor cleanouts?
For 4 inch PVC DWV lines in interior, non-traffic locations, yes. Every unit is the same build (PVC base and body, nickel cover), so covers match across openings and crews only have to stock one part number. Where a 4 inch cleanout lands in a parking area or loading dock, switch to a load rated cast iron cleanout for that location rather than forcing this one in.
7) How much does the Oatey 74159 cleanout weigh for a parts order?
It runs about 4 lbs with a shipping volume of 0.147, which is light enough that it ships as a loose item with the rest of a rough-in order rather than as freight.
