Remodeling a master bathroom. The old vanity covered the vent stack coming up through the floor out of the basement. The new vanity will not.
There's a joist almost directly under the base plate. I'm wondering if I can reduce the 3" vent down to 2" for a short run to get it through the base plate and the joist underneath. My plan is to drill a 3 1/4" hole in the base plate and the joist underneath. This should allow me to route a 2" pipe with an elbow attached. I'd then run the 2" back into the 3" main in the basement.
There are 4 pieces tied into this vent - toilet, shower, double vanity, and a utility sink.
Any problems or suggestions for my proposed idea?
