    Proper DWV connections for this set up
    Is this do-able and how would I connect the drain DWV? Basically, I would like to put a urinal where the shower was intended to be in my basement.

    I should be seeing two vents, one for the fixtures and the other a dedicated vent for the ejector pit. I'm only seeing one,(you can't run the two together) which vent do you have shown? I would connect the lav drain into a tee with the bottom of the tee goinhg into one half of a double combination on the 2" drain to the pit while the top of the tee connects to the house vent. The urinal drain will connect to a tee, the bottom of the tee to connect into the double combo and be drained while the top will run up and connect into the lav vent. Both fixtures will be drained and vented now. Good luck, Tom

    Tom,

    I think I understand everything you said except the "double combo" going into the 2". Can you explain that some more? The vent shown is what was stubbed in for the sink. The pit has a seperate 2" vent.

    The double combo could just as well be a sanitary tee with a street ell coming off the top. This will connect the lavatory on one side and the urinal on the other to the 2" drain line. Regards, Tom

Hello, Something's been nagging me for a while. Several different kinds of material are used for DWV systems, each with its own pros and cons. PVC (and I guess ABS) is inexpensive and easy to work with, but is not allowed by all codes, and is a lot noisier (I've been to a few houses where...
