I posted a question about adding a shower a little while ago and appreciated the responses. Well now I am a little farther now I broke up the concrete floor found the cast iron drain pipe but the venting has me puzzled. The sink drain goes straight into the floor under the floor there is a cast iron
90 deg elbow looks like 3" OD this goes to the toilet drain about 2 to 3 feet away then under the toilet it must make a 90 degree turn goes another 2 to 3 feet where it meets the main drain this is also the only vent for the toilet and sink. I was expecting to see something more for venting but the wall behind the sink and toilet is block with no vent lines? Can I just add a "Y" where the sink elbow is and have the shower drain tie in there with no additional venting? the shower drain is about 3 feet away from the sink. Thanks Joe- posted
