It should work, but whether it would be "legal" would depend on how your building department defines those three fixtures. A 2" line can handle six "fixture units". The sink would be 1 unit, but the tub and washer could be either 2 or 3 apiece. : and they all had a different solution to replace the galvanized pipes under the second floor bath.The bathroom has a tub sink and now a washing machine and dryer and one of the plumbers said they could run a 2 in pipe that would handle all three ..that didnt sound right..and the other 2 had soultions that were totally different.My question is isnt that against any code? Thanks Jon
