My buddy just dropped off a urinal they demoed at work and I am going to plumb it in the garage so I don't have to walk all the way into the house. Any laws against a small gravel sump outside?

guess you need to check your local laws

Its a lot easier to ask forgiveness, than to apply for a permit!....:DRun it into a field line for a septic tank, and discretely across onto your neighbors property!

I have a "gravel sump" outside of my garage side door - I just don't have the urinal. :D

Of course, I live in the sticks... :D

Me too but I'm trying to upgrage so the neighbor will quit complaining. Real funny when there is about 10 dudes hanging around.

Well actually, when we built the house we put a door from the downstairs bath into the garage. It also makes a nice pass-through from the downstairs rooms in the back.

It's just more fun to step outside. :D

So tell them to put it away. :D

cray...you are borderline redneck if you want a urinal in the garage,,don't embarass your lazy ass self,,,,,,,

I have a sink in mine. Really useful. You can wash your hands & get right back to work. A Urinal would be useful also especially for the beer drinking drunk girls!

Borderline hell!

Urinal? We don't need no stinking urinals (really!). That's why God created trees in the woods.

hook it up discreetly and forget about it;)

Correct. Real rednecks just piss in the corner of the garage.

I just open the side door to the garage and piss on the wife's roses. No big deal.

Man, I was just looking for some intelligent conversation with regard to pissers. Now dudes are talking about wizzing on the old laid-ees roses. I normally use a bucket then throw it onto her roses.

Same here....just no hot water piped to it.

I did that one time in a previous house. Dug a pit, put in the gravel. Worked fine. After about a year, the smell in the yard was terrible. If you have a crawl space floor, consider installing on an inside garage wall and plumb into the sewer. Now, I have a deep sink with hot and cold water draining into the sewer. The girls have a hard time balancing on the edge, but no problem for me.

What ever you do be sure that you have plenty of ventilation. Piss and piss oder/vapors are highly corrosive. Any one who has served on a Navy ship will confirm. And don't have close enough to the bike or tools with out splash guards!!

I'd put it in a little closet. (water closet)

Ah, and that way you dont have to admit you have a urinal in the garage!

Yea. I was going to enclose it and put a light fan and a bucket of water for rinse out. Stink is no good.

You know you are a REDNECK when....................................

never heard of anyone with a urinal in their garage.....guess you'll be the first. Take a picture and send it to Blue Collar Comedy Tour and Jeff Foxworthy will have you on for "yard of the month"

Had a friend that worked on a race car in the garage. He drilled a hole in the wall and installed a funnel. Worked like a urinal.

Nothing wrong with a quart Mason jar. When I go to sell the house, I'm going to list it as a
2 and 1/16 bath.

Even though it doesn't seem so, I've found that you never piss more than the amount of beer you drink. So, I just keep the empties close by. Even less effort than walking over to the corner or hanging it out the window. I also found that you can be real quiet about it late at night by sticking your big toe in the bottle and pissing down your leg.

Be sure to seal the concrete under the pissoir.

Simplest install is to dig a hole about 50% deeper than a 2 gallon bucket (5 gal if you have friends or a large capacity bladder) directly behind the urinal. Put a 2" layer of lye at the bottom of the hole. Add a few inches of gravel. Punch holes in the bottom of the bucket, place in hole. Run the exit pipe to the center of the bucketand add a 90 degree bend. Cover with gravel. Decorate the surfaceedgeswith mint plants. Do not serve mint juleps to company.

I'll post a pic of the anti-freeze bottle install tomorrow.

I just pee out the garage door.

Years ago when I did a lot of DX'ing on 20 Meters at my buddiesgarage, he has a flexible funnel running through the concrete wall to the outside. Just take out the plug do your business and put the plug back. Got a little rank in the summer but it did surve it purpose. Hell of a lot cheaper that a urinal. :eek:

William :)

Now get to the point, you guys that are going outside, how far can you send a stream?

I just piss in the sink.

Why go inside?

Mines a funnel with a tube throught the wall. Comes out under the rain spout so it gets flushed every time it rains.

Thats a great idea!!! post picts of it once you install it!!!!

I have to admit it. I have the funnel and hose-through-wall set up in my shop. If my shop wasn't on main st., I would just go outside. The shop is two blocks from my house and it has no plumbing.

just piss in your parts washer lol

also if you got any curtains on your winders you can use them for towel wipes after washing your hands lol

A buddy of mine who's pretty well off has a bathroom the size of my master bedroom and he has 3 stand up urinals in it. Totally kicks ass....if I had the cash, it'd be a no brainer....

Check your laws... and put at least one of those cool standing urinals... you know... the ones that go all the way to the floor? Those are awesome!!

If you are going to piss in the sink, be sure to move the dishes aside first.[:'(]

Never seen so many guys get so excited about a pisser.:D

ORIGINAL: JBaker421

It's just more fun to step outside. :D


Ha ha ha! You sound like me. I swear, I'll walk past a bathroom to go outside to p*ss. lol... People laugh at me for that. Been that way since I was probably 4 years old. My mom said I used to go out in the yard to p*ss regularly.

I've had a urinal in my garage for several years. A lot a beer gets drank out there it was kind of a necessity;). There is a steep hill out behind the garage, I just piped it out and ran some drain tile and gravel down the hill. Can't smell a thing.

Many years ago in Denver, I had the ham shack in the garage and would go out the back door and pee on my ground rod. When I moved from that house and disconnected the ground, I found that the ground rod had corroded totally in two. I have no idea how long I had been without a ground. :)

You want a kick-ass urinal? Get an old Kawasaki gas tank and mount er up on the wall and plumb it in with the urinal flush valve and everything!

Riders will line up and pay ya good money just to whiz in the thing:D!!

You live in Lake Arrowhead Kalifornia. There is no way that is legal. I don't think they even like us to piss standing up here.

But if you do install it

don't shake your buddies hands when they leave.

Too funny!:D:DORIGINAL: higlet

Don't forget to put a magazine rack next to it.:D

TOO MUCH INFORMATION :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Ok. Lime, fan, light, rinse bucket, magazine rack, medicine cabinet, door. You know, I don't want this to look too good, otherwise it will lose its character.

http://www.lakearrowheadsbest.com/weird.JPG

HIglet! Yup. LA is pretty restrictive. Anymore you can't shoot coyotes from your windows.

I built a 30x40' shop about 100yds from the house. I live in the county. Dug a trench from the house to the shop and drilled a hole thru my basement wall, tapped into the waterline in the house and ran water to the shop. Next step was to put in a big double sink on the wall of the shop. next step was I got one of those faucets that you see on a farm or ranch that when you shut the water off it all drains out the bottom, well when I poured the concrete for the floor I stuck a coffee can where I wanted all the plumbing to go out of the shop and then installed that faucet thru the hole in the floor thru the hole in the sink where you would put faucets and then installed the stand up urinal next to the sink got one of these http://65.118.245.21/product/NelsonBrasHoseAdapter-N80C.jpg

and added a hose to that and stuck the other end of the hose in the top hole of the urinal and walla, lift the handle on the faucet to flush. Running out of the shop is a perforated pipe with gravel under the pipe and on top of the pipe. Works like a charm.

to be sure there arepermits required

Good idea. I thought a french drain would work as it did for you. The biggest thing I want to avoid is odor. The law regarding expelling gray water here is you cannot do so above ground (where children vould get exposed). Thanks for the input and ideas.

I live in the middle of nowhere, the whole yard is my urinal

I have 2 buddies with them. One used a large funnel and used PVC pipe to route outside. The other stole one of the cool plastic ones out of a port-a-john and mounted in the corner. Both plumbed outside. Dig a ten foot trench out back preferably down wind. line the bottom with course gravel or limestone. Install a large perferated plastic drainage tile, bury it with more course stone then compact sand and replace the soil. The recycled hops and herbs will flow out and into the drainage tile and filter into mother earth. No smell, no foul. Dont forget the piss biscuit. Hopefully the one that says "Smile Shorty." I think the Red/Green show had an episode with this.

The law regarding expelling gray water here is you cannot do so above ground (where children vould get exposed). Gray water is sinks tubs and washing machines not sewage. but i would install it too just keep it quiet.

This is yellow water, not grey.LOL.

I wouldn't have a Russian motorcycle,two wheeldrive with a sidehack or not I mean thoses things are just so.....oh.....you meant a garage pisser...never mind. [8D]

I too have a sink... with it, I don't need a urinal

My brother is a plumber and got a urinal out of a school and I installed it in my shed. I run PVC outside and into a trench I dug then I drilled about 100 holes in a 3 ft piece of PVC covered it withgravel and then with dirt and grass. Had it for over two years comes in very handy and no odors either.

I've always thought it would be cool to mount three or four old urinals out side on the side of the house and use them as flower planters then piss on the flowers!

I can't believe I'm looking at a pic of your urinal :D Funny thread :D

Damn I'm glad I live where I don't see neighbors! I actually plumbed my garage for a urinal but it's too much work! Easier to just piss in the forest! Keeps the bears, mountain lions and coyotes away! I'm markin' my spot!

I dunno what the "law" states, but a urinal in a garage sounds like a sweet set up.

I currently live in a sub-division. Store the bike in a small shed. I have to shut the shed dorr and piss in a Tim Hortons' (I'm Canadian) coffee cup, then dump it out in the grass, so no one see's my pecker.

So ya ... a urinal sounds like a sweet deal.

The really funny thing is:

Two days ago, I am showing my lovely bride the plans to my new garage. She says, "What's that?"
"It is the floor length urinal honey, also doubles as the floor drain when I spray out the garage."
She rolled her eyes and sighed....

She and I just read thru the whole thread together and laffed our a$$es off. At least now she knows that I am not the only one :D

Always thought these looked pretty cool.

A picture's worth a 1,000 words and a few drops on your pants. Please note the vent pipe, a very important part of the installation:

http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb108/itileman/other-3.jpg

I used 3/4" pvc (should've used 1"). At the top where you pee in, I went from 3/4" to 3". Run it through the wall outside, dug a hole, added 3/4" crushed rock, run the pvc down, buried it and peed. I keep a couple gallon jugs of water to flush and every once-in-a-while when it starts to smell, I dump some bleach (a couple cups) down it. Works great!

Next time you spray out your garage, turn around and look for the wall that's missing, spray that way. The drain isn't as important then:D

The garage is only about 40 yards from the house. I could walk. I was out there measuring last night and it's gonna take some doing. Will post pic when done.

Well,

Well if your missus doesn't mind the urinal for when all the beer drinking buddies come around, think she might accept a couple of beer fridges then a bit later on you could add a little stage and a stripper pole. After all one needs a bit of relaxation after a hard afternoon of polishing chrome.

Beer Frig is in, DVD, Cable, THE URINAL, the drain, not runs not drips no errors. WILL POST A PIC!

Hell, I just throw it into my neighbors yard! He's a dumbass anyway!!

Got one in my garage, just plumb it into a downspout drain, no problems!

Man, I was just looking for some intelligent conversation with regard to pissers.

That is a statmentI could never have expected...ever.J/K

I live in a rural area so I just step around the corner of the shop ifI gotta go. Not a bad idea if you can't go outside. i would run it to the sewer/septic tank though

We just finished building our 'retirement' home in Arizona.It hasa 1250 sqft Garage that is heated and air conditioned. I designed a 1/2 bath with a urinal, but the plumber talked me out of it, put in a toilet and small shower instead. Air, water, and electric on pull-downs from the ceiling, floor drains, TV and Stereo built in. I can play out there day and night, tinkering till my butt falls off. This old age thing ain't bad!

it was just a joke. i live rural too but not really. more like resort. anyway, the urinal is done and works great. neighbor rides a chair and he is already got astorage of catheters up on the shelf by the pisser. glad it is more convenient for him. rolling home (downhill and back) is probably a bitch when you're buzzed. he's a good guy. got shot in the spine. but, truthfully, i put the urinal in so all my buds don't piss all over the placearound the garage, me too!
