I would like to add a slop sink to my basement. The first pic shows existing layout with Studor vent on top of a 1 1/2" vent, and rough in for shower/bathtub as well as bathroom sink drain rough in. the second pic shows the slop sink roughly on the place I want it with a wye just sitting on the cement at the bottom. My questions are:
1. Can I drain the slop sink into the 1 1/2" vent pipe in the lower back right corner roughly like the 2nd pic shows it leaning? The vertical pipe in the corner has the studor vent at the top and a cleanout at the top and the bottom? The length from the slop sink P-trap to the vertical vent in the corner is roughly 6'. I can get a 1/4" drop per foot on the horizontal 1 1/2" pipe, but is it legal to drain into ghat 1 1/2" vent? I am in Aurora, Co.
2. What is the total length allowed for horizontal 1 1/2" drain? If I have to go to the 2" drain closest to you in the 1st pic then the total length is probably 10'.
3. Do I have to tie into the 2" drain closest to you in the picture.
4. Any other suggestions from you professionals?
Edited to correct spelling and add a little clarity.
