I have an old house that has a cast iron pipe that runs along a cinder block wall in the basement and then goes through the wall and exits the house. It's probably about 40" from the basement floor to the pipe. The clothes washer has always drained into a hole in the basement floor, but that drain gets plugged up once in a while and then I have to call Roto Rooter to clean it out.
Someone told me that it is possible to tap into the sewer pipe and use it for the clothes washer drain. Does anyone know how this is done and where to get the parts and how well it works?
