My recently aquired old home has the main stack as shown in the pics.
The home inspector did not flag anything here prior to purchase, but I'm looking for any advice here on any issues you see or how to tie in for future renovations.
A: unused 2" that was for a washing machine in basement.
B: Existing bathroom lav and shower, and kitchen drain. There is no venting on this line which is probably a problem.
V: cast iron vent to roof
SP: sump pump. Not sure if this really should be tied into sewer...
I'd like to tie in to move the bathroom lav to the opposite side of the room. Also potential to add a half bath somewhere else in the future. One solution I see for moving the lav is to remove the cleanout near the top and extend the pipe out, add a wye and tie in there.
Isn't there a requirement for a cleanout at the bottom of this stack in IPC? What would you do in this situation if you wanted to tie into this stack? Rebuild the whole thing? Just looking for some ideas...
Thanks in advance!
