Hello,

I am remodeling my master bath located on the second story of my two story home and I would like to remove a small wall to expand the total length of my shower from 48 inches to 60 inches. The only problem is that my shower drain vents up through this wall so if I take it down I need to move the vent. Would it be ok to tie into the shower drain with a 90 degree wye installed at a 30 or 60 degree angle to vent over enough that I can then go completely vertical and vent into the vent stack for my other bathroom (purple in pic located on other side of the long shower wall)? is there a better way to vent my shower if I remove that wall?

The shower drain is currently 2 inch PVC and the vent is 1.5 inch PVC, the vent I would like to tie into is 2 inch PVC and is used by the sink, bathtub and toilet from the other bathroom. I am attaching pictures of my scenario to help.

Thanks
