House built in 1920's. Kitchen on first floor has 2" iron pipe that goes straight into basement slab without a vent. (Will change this with a AAV)
Half bath above the concrete drain in question has its own 4" cast iron stack. The vanity in this bathroom has its own galvanized iron pipe that goes straight down into the slab. A 2nd floor bath has has the main DWV stack that enters the basement floor in a different location.
The basement has four drains , one in the middle ~8-10", one on the side ~8-10", one by the boiler ~6", and one on the other side. (The one in the picture.
It appears to be made of concrete and is a 90 degree bend like a closet flange. The top of it is missing. How do I attach a new pipe to this so I can use it as a drain?
Does this have its own trap?
How do I tell a cleanout from a drain? Could this be for an old WC in the basement?
Thank you in advance.
