Hello all!
I have a quick question. I am roughing in a new shower drain and tieing into an existing 2" line from my washing machine. I was very tight on room between two floor joists, and couldnt set the trap lower due to interference with the 3" line below there the trap would be. As you can see from the sketch of what I have, I used a combination of elbows to get the loop where it needed to be. Im just curious if I am going to have a problem with the amount of slope. The loop is about 30" long before it ties into the existing 2" line. The problem is that is drops about 4" to 6" in that short distance. It seems to be adequately vented. Currently I have no siphonage issues when I have the washer draining, neigboring sink running and toilet flushing. Does anyone see any issues that may arrise in the future before I start my shower pan and tile process?
I appologize if the picture is hard to interpret. I have floor sheeting down already otherwise I would have just taken a real picture.
Thanks in advance!!!!
Jeremy
