I am at the early stages of a basement remodel. In fact, right now I am just gluing hardboard insulation to the perimeter walls. However, over the winter I'd like to start the finishing process, and there will be some plumbing involved.
(partial plan attached - no plumbing shown, but the sinks are)
In the zoon in I attached, the main drain stack is behind the washing machine. The exit is about 3" above the slab, through the wall at the top of the drawing. Currently, there is a utility sink plumbed in via some adapters that screw into the main cleanout. I'd like to remove this, and plumb in the three new sinks shown - one sink in the washing room (just a countertop sink - like kitchen sink in the countertop), one small bar sink located at the bottom of the picture in the kitchenette/bar, and one utility sink in my workroom.
Currently the existing utility sink is not vented. There appears no place to connect to an existing vent line. I would probably have to use an AAV someplace.
My thought is to extend around the perimeter wall a 2" drain line, picking up the wash sink, around the corner extending to the utility sink in the workroom. Near the corner hook in the bar sink on a branch. I didnt dimension this drawing, but from the cleanout/stack to the corner is about 4', from the corner to the outsize corner near the fridge, is about 12', and from that corner to the utility sink in the workroom is about another 12'. From the outside corner, to the bar sink (the branch) would be anywhere from 3-10' depending on the final layout.
I'm not a plumber, but I do have a decent plumbing book, and I will have a licensed plumber check out my work. I just want to get an idea if this will work, and get the basic layout down before I start any real remodel work. (Slope, where to put AAV, size of drain lines, etc)
Edit: I added the proposed route in RED, big red circle is the stack/cleanout location.
Any advice appreciated.
