Hello,
New here and I have had a lot of building experience in my 74 years. I do have a question though -- A new house is being planned and there will be three baths basically stacked from the basement level to the third floor. So there will be three bathrooms total. The basement has a Toilet, Tub and Lav, the main floor has a Toilet, Walk-in Shower, and Lav and an adjoining/adjacent Laundry room, the third floor has a toilet, tub and lav.
I have done a lot of my own work for decades (both new and remodels), but I am looking for some help here as to the proper way to visualize this stacked DWV system. Is there anyone here in this forum who can provide me a schematic of what this layout would look like? In the old days the main stack could be used as a wet vent for multi-story toilet installs, but I am unsure that is still a code accepted right of passage? And an FYI -- I plan on subcontracting the work to a Licensed Plumber, for the new home build -- I just want to see the layout for my own understanding!
Of course, there will be other DWV components for the Kitchen and the Furnace room (condensate and floor drain in the basement utility room), but for now I am just wanting to see a visual on the 3-story bathroom schematic. Thanks in advance for anyone talented enough to provide me one!
