hello, I'm hoping someone can provide an advise on what I'm trying to do.
apologies in advance for my 3 years old drawing skills![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I'm planning to install a laundry sink in the 1st floor laundry room. the sink will be in the opposite wall of the laundry drain. I don't have the option to tap into the laundry vent. and I don't think the code in my area ( Bolingbrook- will county, Illinois) allows mechanical vents.
Option 1:
1- install 1 1/2" drain pipe and connect to the basement 2inch washing machine line drain.
2- install 1 1/2" vent pipe and connect to the ejector pump vent pipe ( other fixtures are connected to this vent as well). The ejection pump vent goes thru the house roof.
3- connect - Loop both the drain and vent pipes together right under the sink. The drain inlet will be roughly about 4-5" bellow the loop.
option 2:
install a 2" pipe and use as drain / wet vent - connect to exiting basement 2" plumbing line.
2 questions:
1- Are any the 2 options Is acceptable setup? code wise, etc..
2- will it work?
3- if no for both questions, any other suggestions?
Thank you in advance for the help.
