I have a washer/dryer already plumbed on the slab, and a little space to work with to add a toilet and sink. Ive gotten quotes to break the concrete and connect to the iron pipe currently under the slab, but they are more than I can afford and seems too much ($4000). The drain in the pic serves 1 full bath and the kitchen and the washer on the slab next to it, but nothing else. There is one vent at the roof.
I have done routine plumbing myself for many years, always with copper and pvc, but Ive never broken through concrete or re-worked a drain so close to or under the slab where it is already supporting alot of other connections, etc...
1 - Is it possible to get a wall hung toilet on the frame next to the drain and connect it? It looks like the glenwall would give me an extra 4-6 inches off the floor and the geberit an extra 7-11.
2 - Is breaking up the concrete and installing a regular toilet on the slab the best way, if not the easiest?
3 - Are the recommendations for the saniflo appropriate in this situation, pros/cons? if i went with the sanicompact then what would be the best venting solution for a sink draining to the sanicompact?
