    Removing toilet and putting in Washer and Dryer
    I have a third bathroom that is only a toilet. I have the vent pipe that runs next to the toilet. I want to remove the toilet and put the washer and dryer in its place.

    Question (1) can I use the old toilet drain for the washer drain?
    Question (2) Do I need to tap into the vent pipe for the washer to drain?

    Depends upon how you wish to configure it. Care to share?
    (2) Do I need to tap into the vent pipe for the washer to drain?
    Again! You're asking a specific question without furnishing any details.
    What floor id the toilet on? Anything draining above it? How's the toilet vented? I need all the information you can furnish. Regards, Tom
