Just about to start a basement renovation and want to rework the existing 40s bathroom. Currently, there is just a lav and a toilet - but I'm planning on adding a bathtub.
The lav is vented and that vent ties into the main stack up top - they are about 3 feet apart. The toilet will move from where it currently is to the other side of the room. The new bathtub will be roughly where the toilet is now.
Here's my question. Does the bathtub need it's own vent or can it be roughed in like the attached sketch? I seem to remember that a bathtub could be wet vented if it ties in above the toilet...but wanted to double check
Before and proposed after sketches attached as well as a picture of the actual basement.
