Hello everyone. I'm fixing a drainage issue with my ejector pump and not sure about the best way to connect it to my vertical sewage stack. It's a 2" line that comes up from the basement and goes horizontal for 22ft to meet the 3" vertical waste stack. Should this connection be a santee or a combo/wye? I didn't know if the combo is going to cause gargle noise from the pipe as it tries to finish emptying the horizontal pipe after each cycle even though it provides better flow. I'm also wondering if I need to upsize the 3 inch to 4 inch. The house currently has 2.5 baths plus laundry/sink on the ejector pump but I would like to put a bathroom in the basement after fixing this issue. The ejector pump is currently connected to the 2 inch kitchen sink drain and causes the water to come back up the kitchen sink drain when it cycles but it drains back down immediately. Thank you for any help on me over thinking this.
