The drainage system of the building must be vented by one or more pipes whose combined cross sectional area is at least equal to that of the largest required building drain line. This means that if the building main is 3” pipe you could vent with any combination of pipes that total 7 square inches. Pipe size Diameter of pipe 1-1/4” 1.2272 1-1/2” 1.7671 2” 3.1416 3” 7.0686 2. Using the chart above a 3” sewer would require 2-2” vents and 1-1-1/2” vent, 3.1416+3.1416+1.7671=8.0503. This is large enough for the 3” sewer. Vent 6” above roof.

The toilet requires a 3” drain line. Up to 3 toilets may be installed on a 3” horizontal drain line, then at the point where the 4 th. Toilet drain line enters the building drain, the drain must be increased to a 4” drain line. 3. The toilet vent cannot be used as a drain for fixtures on the second floor of the building. 4. The closet bend can be up to 6 foot long. No drains from other fixtures may enter into the closet bend. Only down- stream of the vent. Water lines .Water pressure can be increased with a well pump and bellows tank. Expansion tank on water heater. This is used when there is a check valve on water service. Water shut off valve in valve box, outside in ground. With water pressure over 80 psi a pressure regulator is required. House water shut off under cabinet.. Pex manifold. 1. Water line sizing for a residential home can be quite complex, so here is a rule of thumb. Most two and three bathroom houses can be plumbed with a 1” water service to the house. Install the 1” pipe to the water heater so you will have enough water on the hot side to. There are a few things that must be done. The water pressure at the house must be 60 pounds and the total length of the pipe from the well or meter, to the farthest fixture, must be under 200 foot. No more than two fixtures may be installed on a 1/2“ pipe. 2. PVC water lines are not permitted in a house , only outside in ground.
