Hello,
I am a newbee to the forum, but here goes: I am installing a walk-in bathtub that requires me to reverse the handing of the tub and drain. By design, there is about 3" of space between the bathroom floor and the floor of the bathtub to run a 1-1/2" drain pipe. The drain/vent assembly I have is a cable operated schd 40 pvc ending with a sanitary tee. The floor is a concrete slab.
My 2 questions are:
1. Can I run directly from the new tub drain to the existing ptrap from the old tub, about 46" of run with about 3/4" pitch?
2. Has anyone seen a drain/vent that points horizontal towards the back of the tub?
Thanks in advance.
