We are in the process of building a new house in Vancouver, BC. We thought that we had put everything in place to avoid having to pump with the basement bathroom, but the inspector just told us today that we will need to either put in a sump pump or raise the basement toilet and bathtub by 10 inches. He said no to a back-up valve. I am not sure how it got screwed up! Someone's math is not up to par...
Is there any other solution here?
I was hoping to have the bathroom as an option for elderly parents but that is not going to happen if there is a step to the toilet and tub as a tripping hazard. Am I left having to put in a sump pump? Is there any advantage to using a wall mounted toilet? any other ideas?
