I'm in the process of renovating my laundry room. The washing machine is located right next to the main waste pipe for the house. This is also the main vent stack for the house. I guess that was allowed when the house was built in 1972.
I know that the inspector will require me to increase the washer drain diameter to 2"; it's 1.5" right now. I'm pretty sure I'll also need to add a vent.
I'd also like to add a laundry sink to this room if possible. The only spot it's going to work is to the left of the washing machine and to the left of the main stack. I can't quite figure out how it would be possible to plumb the washing machine drain (from the right) and laundry sink (from the left) into the main drain/wet. I'm somewhat limited by height for the laundry sink drain. You can see that the first place I'd be able to add a drain for the sink is just above the clean out.
