Drain Pipe Sizes

Jan 14, 2017 1 Replies

Anyone know what the typical inside wall diameter for house drain pipes were with this place was built in the mid-1960's? I'm talking about the drains under the house (inaccessible in this one) - from the toilets to the main drain connection, and the main from the house to the street.



The drain from the washer to the main drain is the only one I can see, and it's standard 1-1/2 inch pipe -- smaller than they install these days.



Snuffy


4" would be my guess. Usually the sink drains are 1.5" or 2", the toilets are 3" feeding a 4" trunk but I assume YMMV
