install the waste system in a bath like this using one vent where you live?

Just curious how it would installed in your area. I will post how we do it here and have been since the 80's later with one 2" vent.
 
Here I added a few measurements

BTW, SewerRatz, shoot me a email (esplumbing@verizon.net) with your contact info and I will pass it along to my friends in Wheaton.
 
vents

There is NO CODE which would allow a single vent, given those distances, and if that is the only plumbing other than a kitchen sink, the single 2" vent might not be permitted either.
 
This will pass inspection all day long here in my area of Florida. When I worked up in Ohio years back you can bet I was lost at all the dry venting run there.

We have done a few thousand homes this way over the last 20 years.
 
Depends on the distance from the bath or shower trap to the wet vent. If it's much more that 6' than no it will not pass. If it's passing there it's only because the inspectors havn't got a clue.
