Hello, I am working on adding a bathroom in the basement with just a toilet and a sink. The place where I want to put the toilet is 3 to 4 feet away from a PVC stack that feeds a toilet upstairs. I want to attach the toilet to the horizontal pipe under the basement floor that the stack feeds into. I know I need a combination wye with a 1/8 bend and possibly a vent for the toilet. I was wondering if anyone has any diagrams that could explain how to run everything. I have a good amount of experience in plumbing but this type of job is a first for me.
One other thing I was thinking of is if I tapped into the vertical stack for the toilet and went with a raised floor in the bathroom instead of tapping into the horizontal pipe under the floor. I'm assuming the first way is the right way to do it but I didn't want to rule it out until I talked to someone. Thanks for your help.
