I currently have a septic system just used for grey water and currently only has my washing machine is connected to it. The washing machine is on the main floor and all I see is a vertical 2" drain going into the basement and directly through the basement floor.This setup currently works fine. I would like to attach a bathtub to this same grey water drain but it is 25 feet away. The bathtub currently uses a 1-1/2 inch drain and has a P trap and vent and works fine currently. I am wondering why I can't just run the existing bathroom drain 25 ft by dumping the 1-1/2 inch pipe from the bathtub into a 2 inch pipe and tie it into the existing vertical grey water drain using a wye or sweep. I would plan to have the 1/4 inch drop per foot .
Will this work OK?
