Been away from my project with travel for work. Thanks so much!! Yes! Nice catch on the San-Tee!! I will cut the final 3" pipe lengths one at a time and with consideration for fitting completely in the hub. I'll kee updating with my progress!! THANKS AGAIN!!

Here we go... This is the dry fit. Any feedback on the cleanout and any other comments are welcome... THANK YOU!!

I've got the 4' PVC into the the cast hub via rubber donut from LOWES. It was a snug fit and I used soap to help slip the PVC into the donut. The donut was 3" wide and I got the PVC down 4" in total. The rubber flange is sitting pretty on top of the hub. Without anyone jumping to my rescue...

Alright.... I've cut the cast down to the lowest hub. *This is actually a 90 into the ground. *I cleaned out the hub and its ready to accept a rubber donut into 4"PVC. *From there I have a drawing of the plumbing layout. *I want to run 4" and vent with 4X4x2 Ys rolled for the lav and shower. *My...

The framing is a non-bearing wall and will support design. As for the rest of the house there is only a kitchen sink that is connected to septic via an outdoor vented pipe with an access plug. What is interesting to me about the main stack is that is the entire stack. I looked in the attic...

Thanks so much for the feedback..!! You are 100% correct - The main stack is consuming me...!! I'm okay with the new changes and think the trap vents will tie into a single within the attic and exit the existing roof hole. The drawing is CRUDE, but I'm having 3D mental block. This is...

OKay - With what I've learned, its best to change the layout design to placing Shower/Lav/toilet on on the same wall and that wall is the best way to go. If I get too creative and press my luck and skill the inspector will too get creative. I doubt he will be impressed with my effort.... And...

Edit... Old info - moved to new design below.

Thanks for taking a moment to help sort this out...! I see your point.... The shower drain distance yeilds an approx 4' slope to reach the main stack. [Q] Since I have roughly 2' above, would connecting to the main below ground level be out of the question? (assuming the main stack...

Thank you! Stopped by for a visit with mom.... I'm working on revised design to get closer to the existing vent for the lav, but the shower is a tough one... I've got the ceiling exposed and would rather gather vent pipes in the attic. Pics are of another 1-1/2 vent cut into a bearing...

Hi... thanks for your response!! I've yet to find an exact section that addresses the distance from the toilet to the main stack - 2010 FL Plumbing code doesn't clearly address that however does state that the MAX sanitary slope is 1/8 for pipes 3"-6". 1/8 or .125x15'=1.875' drop. I've got...
