Hi - first of all a thanks in advance for anyone's help here.
The Situation -
We currently have our laundry room adjacent to the garage. I'd like to turn this laundry room into a butler's pantry by moving the Washer/Dryer to the garage along with the laundry sink. Once that is done, a new sink, counter and 2nd dishwasher will be installed in the old laundry room. The laundry room measures 10 feet from door to door.
What needs to be done
So, as you can see from the diagram, i would like to move the W/D and sink out to sit on the adjacent wall. I also need to extend the waste drain and hot/cold to the garage wall to feed both the sink and the w/d (electrical needs to be move too, but i think that's the least of my worries. ) Additionally, because i intend to retain a sink in the laundry room for the butler's pantry, i need to keep the existing trap and h/c where it already is.
Obviously I'd like to do this right and to code. What do i need to make sure of when moving/extending the drain and the water? What's the best way to tap in to the existing pipes?
1) what are some of the heights that i have to keep in mind when installing the new washer/dryer - h/c feeds and waste drain?
2) Can i replicate pretty much what i have now under the sink (p-trap with a tall waste pipe to which the washer drain hose connects over and in to? or do i need to be aware of something else?
3) Do i need to worry about an additional vent?
I know i am missing some info here, please let me know and I will provide. As I said - thanks in advance for the help!
