I would like to reroute a washing machine drain to the same drain pipe as a sink. The system is in my 85 year old mothers condominium. She recently had a water filter fail and it sprayed the drywall which we had to remove. Once the drywall was removed I noticed the washing machine drain was connected to the wrong drain.
It is actually connected to a water runoff drain from the roof that leads directly to the bay. (she is on the water) I would like to correct this since we have the drywall removed and can access everything now. Also another note, the sink I want to connect to has numerous cracks and we need to replace it so that can now be done with less work.
So here is the project:
1. remove and cap washer drain at runoff pipe
2. replace bathroom sink
3. add wye and 1/8 bend or combo to bathroom sink drain and connect washer drain
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Chris
