Here is some background info.
Existing ranch house, moving the location of the only bathroom.
This drawing took me forever, I know the wyes and combos are not reduced to 2" but it was the best I could do for this drawing today. They will be a 3 x 3 x 2" fitting.
I also know the 2" vents on the lav and shower could/should be 1.5" All vents will tie together in attic and go out though 1 roof penetration.
Talked to the inspector and he told me I need to maintain a full size vent through the house and out the roof. I don't really see what the 3" vent I placed in the drawing is doing, my guess is nothing. With that said should I eliminate that and make it a 3" vent coming off the water closet? I cannot take the vent straight up from the stack, it would run through the middle of a bedroom if I did that..
Remove the toilet for cleanout, not the best I know but I don't have room. There are obstructions in the basement and that is why i have to have the 3" ran like it is, even where it offsets under the center beam. I can't lower it to make it straight, the closet bend is as low as I can go and dictates the starting point.
