Hi,
Hopefully this is the right forum section.
I'm looking to run a waste pipe from a new downstairs toilet into an existing downpipe from an upstairs toilet. The way I see it I have 2 options (see picture).
1. Route pipe along wall (with the proper fall) and round the corner into the downpipe near the ground. How would I do this? Would a strap on boss suffice?
2. Route pipe straight down into the underground drain. Would that cause any issues with letting gases escape up the soil stack? I imagine a strap on boss would be insufficient here since the join will be underground?
p.s. You will see some historical damp problems on the wall - hopefully that is now resolved by some rerouting of the guttering (out of shot)
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks,
