Hi I'm trying to figure out how to plumb these two bathrooms in my renovation. It's a full bath on the first floor and a second floor master bath. They're stacked above each other.
Routing the pipes for waste and vent is a little tricky for me to figure out it seems for a few reasons. First, the bathrooms sit against the stairs on both floors, so on the toilet wall, there are beams under the sole plate supporting the staircase. Secondly the second floor bathroom is deeper and wider, so two of the perimeter walls don't line up. The walls that do line up is the exterior wall and the wall against the stair case. Third, on the second floor we're adding a washer and dryer on the other side of the wall shared by the vanity. I would like to plumb everything into the basement and then route it out from there.
Could I route the stack up the doorway wall in the first floor, make a turn for about a foot, then go up the second floor bath's doorway wall? Could I use an exterior wall? I'm attaching the drawings, one of the first floor, one of the second and one with the two drawings overlaid. I'm in Kentucky. Walls are 2x4.
Thanks in advance for the help wrapping my head around this. I'm sure that I'm leaving needed info out, apologies in advance for that.
