I am installing a new shower and toilet in a basment that plumbing has been roughed in by the builder. When I got down to the pipe (2") for the shopwer that was in the cement floor it comes from the wrong direction to where I want the drain to end up. A few questions.
1. Can I install a trap at a 90 degree angle then I put it in and then go 90 degrees again when I come out of the trap so I am heading back in the same direction and then put in the line to connect to the pipe heading up to floor drain.
2. what do I have to do about a vent. any chance the builder already hooked it to a vent some where under the floor. I really don't think I would be that lucky. I took the end cap of the line and there had been so moisture there and I could here the water running when flushed on the other side of the house.
3. The same question applies for the roughed in toilet pipe. any chance it is alread got a vent??
Thanks for any help. this will be the first of many questions I am sure.
