Bathroom drain questions Help!

Feb 26, 2007 2 Replies

Hello,



I am going to put a bathroom in my garage. I have a cast iron soil stack in the corner of the garage that I can use. I was going to cut into and insert a PVC adapter. I was then going to drain the toilet and the sink into that.



My question is: Will this work? Do I have to vent anything?



Will it be code? My town uses the 2003 national standard plumbing code.



Any comments will help! Thanks!!!



Here is a rough sketch:

What else is draining into that stack? Above or below where you will have the new drain? Will you be able to run a separate vent? What part of the world do you live? Does it freeze? How will you protect the toilet from freezing?

Not to Code. Needs venting.

Other Code considerations for a bath "room". Suggest a talk with local bld'g dep't first to see if they will permit it under any conditions.
