Hey Guys,
I'm working on a kitchen remodel that requires moving the sink about 3 feet to the right. Here's a photo for reference:
There was a 2" cast iron vertical drain pipe in the wall behind the sink that ran straight down through the basement and connected at the floor. It had to go because it was leaking.
In the photo, it has already been taken out, and a piece of PVC is just loose-fit to the remaining galvanized vent pipe. The plan is to replace the cast iron section with 2" PVC and use a short length of 1 1/2" PVC above the sanitary tee to connect the galvanized vent.
The new sink will be in the corner of the room, so I need to get a horizontal run of PVC from the vertical pipe to the new sink location.
My plan is to run a length of 1 1/2" PVC from the sanitary tee, through the wall, ending in a 90 degree elbow that faces out from the wall in the cabinet under the sink. From there, I plan to connect the sink plumbing, with the dishwasher waste pipe tied in upstream of the P-trap.
At 3', I'm pretty sure I'm well within limits for my distance to the vent. And I'll be careful to maintain the 1/4" slope-per-foot.
Does anyone see any problems with this design? I want to get it right and pass my inspection without hassle.
Thanks!
