Hello,
I recently added an addition to my home and in the process converted an old bedroom into a master bath that includes a toilet, sink, standup shower, and Jacuzzi tub. We submitted drawings to do all the work our selves. This is our first major building project (and last) and after several drawings revisions submitted they told us to just get started and they’ll help with any questions down the road (specifically plumbing and hvac).
Everything has gone fairly smooth except for the plumbing and I think we’ve gotten ahead of our selves on this.
A friend said he’d help with the plumbing but he isn’t up to any code and is quite a bit older. The house has a crawl space with a 3†drain and a 3â€cast iron vent. He added a new 3†vent that exits outside for the new bathroom and is vented directly to the 3†drain both toilets are connected to. Nothing else is directly vented besides the toilets. Is this ok?
We tested everything with buckets of water and it and filled tub and it all appears to drain correctly. I’m about to call the inspector for help but I fear that he might recommend I start from the beginning with the drains \vents.
Please take a look at the attachment.
Thank you.
