I have a narrow basement. The bathroom currently sits square in the middle wasting space for what could be a very usable room. Meanwhile, I have wasted space at the other end of the basement where I want to put the bathroom instead (where the washer and dryer are).
I have included two rough diagrams (not to scale)
The existing 3" flloor/vent stack/sewer line are shown. A 2" vent will cross the ceiling for 10' and then turn and travel 8' to the existing 3" vent stack. It will be attached to the vent stack above the highest drain connection.
For the vent stacks servicing the new bathroom, do I need to put a third for the toilet or will the two branches serving the sink and tub be sufficient?
The existing sewer line is 2 1/2' below the foundation. The new run will drop 4" over the 16' run. It won't connect to the floor drain as it appears in the rough diagram. That drain is actually offset from the sewer line.
My big concern is the 90 deg in the sewer for the new bathroom. Is this acceptable? Is there a better solution to turn that corner?
