    Jvglenn; Takke and set it up the same as it is now , Use 2" pvc line and tie it into the main sewer line under your house useing just under the floor dont forget the trap. when you tie into the 3" sewer line use a 3" x2" pvc (t). A lot of people,use 1/12" pvc for the drain , But with the high drain pressure on the newer washers you nee the 2" IF I have helped Please Rate My Answer.::"
