Remodeling a bathroom with one of the infamous freestanding tubs in shower / wet room. I installed separate P traps and arms for shower (2in) and tub (1.5in) that both join and are connected to an existing downstream 1.5in vent pipe. It occurred to me that this setup may cause trouble with siphoning (e.g. tub outflow may dry out the shower P trap) along with max distance of the tub line to vent (>42in).
Is the above setup (Figure A) permitted by code? If not, how would you propose to fix it?
If the above is not code compliant, would the following setup (Figure B) work?
Thank you!
