OK, I have a question on installing a bathroom in my basement. Here are my circumstances. In the basement I have all the waste lines running down to one 4 inch pipe then down the wall and exiting the basement about 2 feet up the wall in the direction of the septic tank. I'm guessing that this is the only waste line. But I also have rough in for a bathroom in the basement consisting of one 4 inch pipe with a rag stuffed in it about a foot from the wall and a single 2 in pipe capped right next to the wall. Also a wooden box in the floor five feet from the wall. My question is how can this possibly work? The washer and the utility sink both drain into a sump pump and it pumps it up to the main waste line. If there was a waste line under the slab why wouldn't they tap into that instead of the pump? I was going to pour water down the 4 inch pipe to see if it backs up before installing anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Ethan.
