    DWV for new basement bath and laundry

    The 3D drawing above is just what the house has currently (minus the existing laundry, as it's wrong): WC, Lav (31" to the right from lav trap to main stack), and Bath (left fixture in the 3D drawing). I'm still trying to draw the new basement setup, just struggling a little with the software as...

    DWV for new basement bath and laundry

    Trying to use some 3D software this is pretty close to what my existing plumbing situation is. I did not included the existing laundry because I already know it's very wrong and it's a little complicated to draw. I'm currently attempting to add the new plumbing setup I've sketched above.

    DWV for new basement bath and laundry

    The right hand drawing is an accurate representation of how the main sewer drain is, 3" horizontal, 90 up through the floor with a cleanout, coninuing up the the main floor bath. I should have fixed the left hand drawing to show this better instead of just pointing the arrow. I was planning...

    DWV for new basement bath and laundry

    That's correct. I was hoping if I used the appropriate fittings and vents I could use a 2" standpipe drain tied in with the lav sink. If this is a problem I will plumb a 2" drain all the way to the 3" stack for the washer and a 1.5" drain for the lav sink...

    DWV for new basement bath and laundry

    That's correct. Eliminating the sink with the 1.5" drain, installing a 2" stand pipe for stackable laundry.

    DWV for new basement bath and laundry

    Hi Guys, I just moved into our first house last week and we are re-doing the basement and adding a half bath. I've attached a sketch showing the old and the new. Due to the laundry/bath config there will be a long run around a wall to the main drain,~15'-20'. I was hoping if I used the right...
