DWV experts: Can I use a sanitary tee to vent a fixture drain?
I understand why sanitary tee's are used in most cases. I would never substitute a vent tee for a sanitary tee, but can I substitute a sanitary tee for a vent tee?
fine print:
Home Depot doesn't even stock vent tee's. By vent tee I mean the ones that are a right angle instead of the swoop.
I am trying to vent a individual fixture drain after the P trap with a plain vertical vent. I would mount the sanitary tee so as not to encourage the waste to ramp up into the vent.
I know the ultimate say is with the code official but I wonder if there's anything in the code that forbids this.
