I would like to move my toilet, bath, basin to new locations in my bathroom. The current pipework does not look like it has been designed or fitted very well and I don't wish to follow this poor level of work. To this end could anyone please advise me as to the following:-
1. Shared/Single waste connection into the horizontal soil pipe.
I intend to provide a separate connection for each piece of bathroom ware. Is this a good idea or should I be linking them all to one pipe then feeding them into the main soil pipe.?
2. Pipe sizes.
I intend to use 40mm pipes for the wastes on the bath and shower, slightly smaller on the basin. All these pipes will be less than 2m length before they enter the main soil pipe. Is this sensible?
3. Pipe fall.
What is a sensible amount of fall to put on the waste pipes?
4. Limits on connections into the same length of horizontal soil pipe.
Are there any limits/rules of thumb I should follow with regard to how many connections I can make to my horizontal soil pipe? Note that the soil pipe in question is only serving the single bathroom and nothing else(yes I only have one bathroom!). The soil pipe is located about 1 foot below floor level in the bathroom. It is 110mm diameter.
Thanks in advance
