Drainage for wetroom advice

[mutley racers]

Hi All

I am after a bit of advice, I am installing a wetroom in my house which is a bungalow. The vent pipe comes up through the concrete floor and up through the roof right next to the toilet pipe which is the same branch of drainage pipe.

Now the toilet long radius bend is

about 500mm to the bottom. My vent pipe connection in the concrete floor will be about 420mm. Would this be ok?

the pipe on the left is the vent where I want to take the elbow off and put a reducer to 40mm in for wet room tray. The pipe on the right is the toilet pipe which I am going to put the vent on there to vent the drain and then box the pipe in.

Thanks all

Keep well

Lee

I don't understand?

Hi Mate. Probably a bit long winded.

Basically the pipe on the left in the picture goes out through the wall and is the vent. The pipe to the right is my en-suite toilet waste. There is another toilet on the left which is connected to this branch which runs into the inspection chamber. What I want to do is take the elbow off of the vent in picture on the left and put a 110mm x 50mm connector on it for the shower waste. Then vent off of the top of the toilet on the right?

Any clearer

or are you planning on joining it underground?

Hi Shaun, it will be underground yes. Pretty much level with the insulation under the screed. Thinking of putting this into the socket where the elbow is now...

Great.

What I am getting at here is in Building doc H drainage it says that no branch pipe should be connected less than 450mm from the bottom of the long radius bend to the middle of the branch pipe? This is not a soil stack though so just thought I better make sure. It probably is just about 420mm I believe.

As you say that’s for foul
