I'm doing a remodel on my 2nd floor bathroom and converting the old stand up shower into laundry with a direct drain (no tub). I just want to make sure I'm not going to have any drainage issues.

Below is the rough-in. My assumption the the drain is tied into the vent under the floor. The horizontal run is 12" and it's got 1/4" slope.

Any sage advice on the proposed set-up is welcome.

Thanks -

Gary

The p-trap is 6" to 18" above the floor.
Standpipe 18" to 30" above the trap.

The 90 bend from vertical to horizontal is a long turn 90 below the floor.

Old post, and old picture. I made this for the OPs original picture from March before I noticed it was an old post.

Michigan uses IPC, and that is more permissive than UPC for standpipes.
