Ok ok, I need some advice. As you will see from the very poor drawings and details in the pictures below, I will try to explain as best I can, and I know there will be much laughing... Lets begin!
I have a laundry room that is roughed in for bathroom/shower, etc. Since I have no idea about plumbing, I decided this place would be the best for ideas on how to do things.
This house was built in 1998 and the previous owners (original) left their old washer and dryer and we didn't change anything until now... We bought a new washer and dryer and my wife wants to change where they are placed.
We will begin with a very poor room layout scheme that I drew up in about 2 mins:
As you can see I have labels where each picture was taken, and direction. I have also marked (poorly) where there is plumbing coming out of the floor, and I would like to know what devices if you will, can go where. Where could I put a shower, where could I put a sink, where could I put the toilet, where can I put the washer drain, etc. In the pictures I have marked where devices were, and questions on what pipes are for what. Now I have a very basic understanding on what everything is, but I figured I should be treated like a complete amateur so I can be sure I have all the right details. (I'm laughing so hard at my silly pics and diagram already...) Also note, that the old washer and dryer were facing each other, and my wife wants to put them side by side against that same wall.
Ok Here is plumbing01.jpg:
I assume this can be used for the washer drain, shower drain, sink drain, but not toilet. Am I correct?
Here is plumbing02.jpg:
This is simply a continuation of plumbing01.jpg to show how the vent is connected in the ceiling of the room.
Here is plumbing03.jpg:
We can see the existing standpipe and future rough-in for toilet, and other connections (not sure how these could be run...)
To be continued in next post...
