John Kogel Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Can the main drain be used as a vent? Yes it sure can. Can the valve be filled up with sludge? Yep, that too. [] Not correct or even smart but in Denny's no-man's-land, there's no telling what he can or is it may? find. Some funny stuff in those crawlspaces.

Don't you have horizontal wet vents in your area? 908.4 Bathroom Wet Venting. 908.4.1 Where permitted. Any combination of fixtures within one (1) or two (2) bathrooms located on the same floor level in dwellings and guest rooms shall be permitted to be vented by a wet vent. The wet vent shall be considered the vent for the fixtures and shall extend from the connection of the dry vent along the direction of the flow in the drain pipe to the most downstream fixture drain connection to the horizontal branch drain. Only the fixtures within the bathroom(s) shall connect to the wet vented horizontal branch drain. Any additional fixtures shall discharge downstream of the wet vent system and be conventionally vented. 908.4.2 Vent Connection. The dry vent connection to the wet vent shall be an individual vent or common vent for the lavatory, bidet, shower, or bathtub. 908.4.3 Size. The wet vent shall be sized based on the fixture unit discharge into the wet vent. The wet vent shall be a minimum size of 2 inches for 4 dfu or less, and 3 inches for more than 4 dfu.

Bill Kibbel Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 What is the code for "around here"? Sani-tees can't be on their side for drainage. What's the prohibition for using them on their side for venting? How do you vent a toilet through a sink? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
