Hello,
Looking for a little advice. The wife is looking for projects for me to complete before we have our first child. She wants to move my washer and dryer to the basement in order to build a extra bathroom upstairs. I currently have a 4" Cast Iron sewer line that runs about 4.5 ft above the floor into a Septic Tank. I was adviced with the current set up to just cut a big chunk of the pipe out and start from scratch. I have been reading alot and have seen many different opinions and opinions to do this. Some people have set up a drainage, some have installed pumps. I wanted to get some opinions and possible sketch ideas from others. I have a picture of the current setup.
My plan would be to set up one Wye for the upstairs bathroom and cap it for now (Thats another project for another time). Then possibly put a sideways Wye with a Combo Connector one for Vent and another for P Trap and about 20" Pipe for the washer hose to pump into Example below. Also Something similar someone did. Would this work? Thanks for the advice.
