Hello,
I'm in the middle of a master bath remodel and I'm swapping my tub and shower. I've got my demo done and I now need to update my tub & shower DWV pipes.
Here's the layout. Blue is old pipes, orange is the new I'm installing:
My question is about the connection at the red circle. There's an existing 2" loop that comes from the old shower, close to the wall for a vent and then connected to the main drain line. I want to bring my new shower drain over and connect to it.
At that connection, can I connect horizontally or do I need to come in from above? My plan is to use a combo wye & 1/8 bend like below and lay it on its side:
Is that acceptable or do I need the inlet facing upward?
