Hello,
Ok, so the stubout for my lavatory in the basement bath was set BEFORE the vanity was chosen...I know, bad move....or rather, a different vanity should have be picked. However, one of those vanities that looks like a dresser was bought and it has the second drawer cut out in the center to leave room for the P-trap and plumbing. The problem is, the stubout is too low, so what's happening is the P-trap is ending up "inside" where the bottom drawer would be!
So, what I'm wondering is if it's possible/ok to raise the stubout by adding a 45 degree fitting (or even a 22 degree) in the horizontal section in the wall leading to the vent/drain line? Will this work and be acceptable? Here is a picture of what I have...and I tried to draw in my proposed fix. I'd like to add a 45 degree fitting to the horizontal section in the wall, which will raise the stubout and also get me close enough to attach the tailpiece...is this allowed? Will it work? Here's a picture... (disregard the second picture, was a mistake, just consider the one with the 90 degree)
Any help would be appreciated...I gotta have something done with this by morning
