Hi there,
I am thinking of adding a half-bath to my house and wanted to get your input on the best approach. The idea is to run the toilet sewer drain (3" PVC) from one end of the house (green square) to the main cast iron drain pipe. I also have to keep in mind that there is also an old 2" cast iron kitchen drain line that currently cuts into the main where I want/need to make my connection. Would it be better to cut off the main and replace it with a PVC wye attached with flexible couplings while trying to connect the kitchen drain somewhere to that new 3" drain or try to find a flexible double wye that can connect both PVC and cast iron and avoiding some of the different material headache in the process (I would likely be able to shift the toilet where it can hook up on the other side of the kitchen drain line)?
Thank you.
