Hi everyone,
I've seen a few threads about this, but none quite seem to answer my questions. I would appreciate any insight!
1. What are these pipes by my equipment pad? One is capped off and one is open. From other threads, I assume the latter is some sort of relief pipe? But what about the capped one? Ignore the water heater - it is the original from ~30 years ago that was never disconnected for some reason.
2. The other two pipes are nowhere near the equipment pad. I tried pouring water down one of them and it drained, but no clue to where. I want to assume these are sewer cleanouts - but why would there be two and why wouldn't they be sealed / capped? The main sewer cleanout is on the other side of the home but the patio was redone on this home ~3-4 years ago. I believe the whole thing was dug up so its possible that someone added that sewer cleanout.
Please be kind about the state of the water . We're in the process of moving in and the previous homeowner hadn't opened yet - I'm having to drain it due to high levels of CYA (>200 ppm).
