    Rear draining toilet 2
    The toilet is a regular style toilet, not a wall mount.

    The only difference is that instead of the bowl connecting to the flange on the bottom, the hook up is through a 3" framed pipe out the back of the toilet about 8-10" off the floor.
    It has a regular style tank above the toilet.

    Not sure what brand it is.

    The basin is a holding tank with a sewage pump.

    Rear draining toilet 2
    Hey Scott, You were planing in cutting in a drainage tee or a combation in the vertical stack and pick up the toilet off a horizontal flanged stub out, or were you going to run between walls over to your sewage holding tank? If that's the case be advised that, according to Section 1409 Table3 of the Plumbing Code the most that you can distance the toilet from a vent is six feet. If you plan to discharge between the walls and the distance will be over six feet to the tank then a vent or revent must installed in the discharge pipe. However I can get you around a normal vent with a Studore Mechanical Spring Loaded Vent. This vent does't have to go out through roof. It stays within your wall. Let me know which way you plan on going. Cheers, Tom
