    Converting a Walking To Shower
    Hi, We have an ensuite with just a toilet and Sink (on the second floor). On the other side of the toilet wall is a walk in closet. Is is possible to put in a Stand up Shower enclosure into the closet. If this is possible does it drain to the Sink etc. Is this a crazy idea?

    Hey Rush,

    " Is is possible to put in a Stand up Shower enclosure into the closet. If this is possible does it drain to the Sink etc. Is this a crazy idea"

    Not at all! By connecting the shower drain back to the lavatory drain you will have wet vented the shower through the lavatory and no further venting will be necessary. Good luck, Tom
