I am finishing my basement and installing a bar. The 2 inch drain for the bar sink has a long distance to travel to tie in with existing DWV stack - 52 feet. So, by my calculation I need 13 inches of slope (1/4 inch per foot) over that whole distance.
The attached floor plan shows the route the drain needs to travel. It will run through a knee wall behind the sink and through the outside walls, with three elbows, to the dwv stack.
When I take into consideration elbow below the sanitary tee and the fitting to tie into the DWV stack, the required height for my sanitary tee is 23 inches from the floor to the center of the tee. Is that too high? I am not installing a garbage disposal and I don't have a bar sink picked out yet, so I don't know what the sink depth will be. Are there any code requirements regarding sanitary tee height? Will I have trouble installing a typical bar sink with a tee that height?
Thanks, Jack
