I hired a guy with "30 years of construction experience" to help me add a basement bath. He made the plumbing seem really simple...too simple. I began doing research after we closed it up (still kicking myself for this), but something just doesn't seem right.
Anyway, what I really need is your help.
1) Was the new piping, that runs to what was the basement drain, done wrong or right? If wrong, explain how it needs to be done.
2) I'm sure a p-trap needs to be added for the shower drain. After I add a 2" p-trap can I connect 2" pvc to the existing 4" pvc? (I know I am going to have to break up the floor again, but I would like to break up as little as possible.)
3) As you can see I haven't put up the frame yet. Am I on the right track with venting? I don't know how I would vent the toilet given where the rough in is at. Suggestions?
I would be more than happy to record more or clarify a point If I didn't explain things well.
Thanks!
