I must either be more awesome at this plumbing stuff than I thought! Everyone is speechless!

Either that or I am beyond all hope.

:)

Here is the finished product. Any concerns?

See this pdf for the portion that requires relief.

Mine will be sitting on top of a tile floor. I guess I will just not put tile under the bumped out portion. That way the outermost ring of the...

I think I found it:

Sioux Chief 886-4AM or 886-4ATM (with knockout)


But, then I found these instructions on the Sioux Chief spec sheet pdf for the 3" inside fit version. If the 4" outside fit...

Is this it?

I have a 4" toilet riser pipe and I'm looking for a 4" ABS outside (slip-over) closet flange with a SS ring. The one that hj has mentioned in other threads.

Can anyone provide a manufacturer and...

Is that bar sink drain connection allowed in the middle of this wet vented bathroom group?

Whoops! I meant 1 1/2". :o

Didn't mean to give you a heart attack on a Friday at 5 o'clock.

Thanks again for the advice. I truly appreciate it.

Final revision?

Yellow shows the new drain line for the toilet and also the "Y" on its back that brings in the combined shower and lav drain.

Red shows the 'upper level' "Y" on its...

I can get rid of the existing wet vent and put in a dry vent that will be at 30 degrees. That might have to be good enough.

Unfortunately, I can't see how to get to a wall for a separate vent for the shower.

hj and dlarrivee,

Thanks for the input. I definitely want to get this right, so here is what I am currently thinking.

1. Delete the horizontal lav drain branch (red X).

2. Drain the...

Well, some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue. The work was done by a licensed plumber and it passed inspection.

Hi all! Here's how the plumbing turned out.

I have a few questions on the result:

1a. The shower branch-to-main branch wye is on its side. I understand that this branch is wet vented....

In the book diagram, what if you were to put a cleanout on the vertical portion of the vent (above floor level)? In that case you could unclog the horizontal portion of the under slab vent via the...

Blind leading the blind here...but you cannot put a sanitary tee on its back. Where the washer drain line and the sink drain line come together, that needs to be either a wye or a wye-tee combo.

Gsalet and Tom Sawyer,

Thank you for your replies. I am starting to become convinced that I should pay a professional to handle the under slab work.

One more question: Am I allowed to add a...

I don't understand why you would need a checkvalve on the 1st floor vertical stack. Are you worried about water from the street line backing up into the first floor fixtures? I'm trying to imagine...

Any help here on the 1 month anniversary of my thread? ;)

The line drawing in post #3 shows all of the under slab drain plumbing I am proposing. The only existing plumbing is the right-to-left...

Perhaps something by Duravit?

Still working on this under slab layout. I would appreciate any feedback you can give.

I am considering breaking up more of the basement slab so that I can put the backwater valve in an...

Well, I had a plumber come in to work up a bid for doing all of the under slab work assuming I would do all the digging and backfilling and slab repour myself. He hasn't gotten back to me yet, but he...

Hi all!

Recent lurker and first time poster here. I promised myself and my wife that we would save money on the basement remodel by leaving the bathroom alone...um...yea. :rolleyes: In the end, I...
