Hello All,
I have ripped out an old bathroom that consisted of a tub/shower, sink, and toilet all in a row. The room adjacecent to all of this had a kitchen sink. This is the drain that is visable on the lefthand side of my picture. The new plans call for leaving the tub/shower in the same position, moving the sink the rear of the view of the picture, and somewhat leaving the toilet alone.
The problem is that the toilet is really close to the righthand wall and that wall is made of 2x4's turned on their side. It is workable but not ideal. I would like to shift the toilet to the left just to help things out. It is my understanding that I can use a donut to tie into the cast iron and make things work. I think I can use a slightly angled fitting to move it over but I have not played around with any fittings yet to see what it would create.
The current shower/tub drains into the toilet closet bend which I'm guessing is not up to code/done anymore. I believe the solution here is to drain the tub into the kitchen sink drain on the far left but that has me wondering about the vent. The kitchen sink drain has a vent stack 5' away from it but I believe this would technically be a wet vent. The other option is to use the kitchen sink drain and the existing vent the tub currently ties into which goes into the main vent stack. I've attached a picture to try and display all of this as best as possible. Any advice that can be provided would greatly be appreciated!
