Hello Lover's of Plumbing.
First off, I should say I am not a lover of plumbing, but a man's got to do...
So, here's my moderate dilemma. Please excuse my lack of terminology.
The T-junction on the 2" pipe did have a 90 degree elbow that came out through the drywall (after going through the stud on the left) which was the drain for the sink. (see pics)
So a few days ago the sink blocks up completely and no amount of anything was clearing it, so I ripped off the drywall and after some hassle (of course) discovered that the pipe had rotted away just to the left of the T-piece (you can see the threaded part that remains).
The three smaller pipes at the front are, from the left, hot water (which I have temporarily attached to the dishwasher), an old and defunct pipe, presumably cold water, and the copper pipe which is the present cold water.
These pipes are not my concern...unless you tell me otherwise!
Obviously I need a new drain outlet for the new sink (the blockage happened during a remodel, exactly when I didn't need it...because as we all know, there are times when you really do need a blockage https://terrylove.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif )
Anyway, I would like to join the vent pipe which exits picture top right, in a less convoluted fashion to the drain, which comes in diagonally from bottom right. Ideally this would happen within a few inches to the right of the stud in the middle (due to dimensions of the new cabinets).
So my question is (if you are still following), how, and with what materials do I do this?
The vent goes out through the roof and is I think 2" galv.
My thought was to add a 90 degree after the 90 from the vertical vent pipe, and come down beside the stud on the right, and put in the appropriate T-piece to drain the sink and dishwasher, then continue down and join into the diagonally pipe just before it disappears into Hades!
Any and all responses appreciated.
Thanks
