    Dry Vent Only

    Yeah, I won't have any 90's until they get to the ceiling so that is covered and no I have no more than 20 fixtures in the entire home, I think, so I should be good, I will have a 2" vent per fixture anyway and then tie all, or most of them, together in the attic and have the least amount of...

    Dry Vent Only

    While I know I have the option of doing wet venting given some circumstances I need to do dry venting for some of my fixtures (mostly WC) while preparing for that I realized I can do dry venting for every single fixture. While I know it would be more work and more pipes and fittings and possible...

    Would this pass IPC code?

    I'm doing the plumbing of my house and this is what I came up with. I have a 4" main drain PVC pipe schedule 40 (solid, not foam or cell core) and for each toilet I have a 4" pipe as well (I don't want to do the closet bend my thinking is that 4" to 4" is better so I have a 4" long sweep to the...
