HI; I have a saniplus-snaiflo toilet. I cannot get to the main vent; How can I vent it properly out of the celler and have it work properly.
Thank you Jerry

Hi Enochs...

You don't have to get to the main vent... only any fixture vent... 1.5" minimum size required for these sytstems. Connect at a minimum of 42-48" off the floor.

Otherwise, you could also install the saniflo vent up and through the roof by itself or out the side of the building to above the roof line to 12" to 24" above the roof, right (2" minimum through roof)?

Back to you...

HI mark : the only way I can vent is to come out the celler wall and I am under the deck; I can go up about a foot, then cap with screen will this work; we do not have any codes;

Thank you Jerry

There will be sewer gasses associated with the vent so, at a minimum, drill through the deck and run the vent up the side of the building to above the roof, if possible. If you can't go above the roof, but can get the vent above the windows and at least 10 feet from any opening in the building (windows, doors, sklights, etc.) then run it to that point.

I would not recommend just installing vent under the deck... odor and health issues here, for sure!
