Hi Captain...

Exactly what do you need to know.. There are a few guys here that would be glad to help... just need to know a little more information.

What pipes are existing now? Are you moving pipes, adding pipes, relocating pipes? What size is the pipe going over to the washing machine? What size is the washing machine vent?

Tell us what you can...

You're not installing a lavatory or vanity in your new bath?

I have a existing laundry tub drain system with a 2 in. pipe abs in the wall going through the floor with no trap in the wall. I was told the trap needs to be no lower than 6 in. above the floor. The pipe is centered between the studs with no room for trap. I am remodeling the bathroom so I have access to the pipe from the laundry room , I was going to add a trap and vent but there is no room unless its under the floor what do I do

San T and Trap will fit exactly between studs ( 14 1/2")... If not, drill through next stud and install trap in next bay... See pic...
