I'm moving the washing machine to the other side of the basement and I've come up with this plan so I'm checking with the pros to see how valid it is. The currently system consist of 2" copper lines running to the sink and dishwasher upstairs. There is a 2" drain pipe coming just form the sink(and dishwasher) and nothing else which I plan to tap into. At the bottom of the drain pipe(about 6 inches from the basement floor) there is a T that is currently capped(maybe fore a future washing machine?)
So, in my picture the gray sections are the existing pipes and green are the future pipes. Is there anything wrong with this?
I guess my main concerns are.
1.) Can the washing machine and dishwasher be on at the same time and the kitchen sink will still be usable?
2.) Will the drain "suck" the water from the sink trap?
3.) Is the 2" pipe sufficient for the washing machine?
