My wife and I are remodeling a 1900 brick craftsman house room by room. My current project is adding a bathroom in our in an oversized laundry room above our cellar. I'm under IPC 2009 and have scoured the codes, but wanted to draw on the vast expertise of this group. Attached is an attempted 3-D layout of the bathroom (including pipe sizes and fittings). I'm working in a cellar with a furnace in the far back corner (where the cast iron turns the corner). There is an adjoining bathroom with a WC hooked into the cast iron (which is cemented through the cellar wall). I didn't add it for hopes of clarity. I've overlayed the 3-D on a previous iteration of a CAD layout of the bathroom. I've pulled a permit and hope to minimize the hassle for my inspector and myself.
Please let me know if you have any feedback.
My main concerns are:
1. Is my 2" vent between the WC and future lav (from adjoining Bathroom) adequate for the shower (given less than 8' of run from my trap to vertical as per IPC 906.1)?
2. Any problem to drop my 2" and 3" lines down to the main 4" waste on a 45deg angle
3. I've left a 2" stub for the future movement of my lav in the adjoining bathroom just downstream of the bathtub, any issues with leaving this capped?
4. (not shown in image) For the 2nd floor future bath I'm going to run a 3" line into a void above a shower (we have 10' ceilings) for future connection into that bath group. It will run about 8'-10' from the main stack and be capped. When we build the bath I'll vent it independently. Any problems here?
5. Any other concerns you have
Many thanks in advance,
Dan
