Hi guys -- new fella here who is new to the forum and to remodeling. Great site for me, thanks.
I have removed a sink whose 2" abs drain/vent tied into the 3" abs drain of the adjacent toilet. I would now like to remove all of the 2" abs (drain AND vent) but I'm not sure if I can. My concern is that I will be removing the vent that the toilet used.
But there are two other vents that attach to the toilet's 3" abs drain. One is 5' downstream where the 3" abs drain 90's downstairs and into the slab. There is a vent here. The other is 5' upstream where the bathtub is. It's drain (2" abs) ties into the toilet's drain and it has a vent as well.
If anyone can follow this, can you tell me if I am good to remove the vent? Will the toilet drain now just vent out the shower's (upstream) or out of the main vent (downstream)? Will I still have adequate flushing power? Thanks in advance.
