I have an drain stack that I want to tee into for my kitchen sink drain. It's about 18" horizontally away from where the sink will be.
My first issue is how to run the drain 18" horizontally. If I rotate the Tee such that it is in plane with the wall, the pipe will need to bore through loadbearing studs. If the Tee points into the room a little bit, the drain will need to cut diagonally through one of the cabinets before finding its way into the sink base cabinet.
Second problem is height for this Tee. How can I find its proper vertical position it if I don't yet have the sink? if I don't yet have any specs about the food disposal I may or may not include? if I havent even determined countertop height? Am I wrong in assuming there is one and only one correct placement for the tee so that the drain from the sink connects with it, or will there be some adjustable factor such as a telescoping trap or something involved?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
