Loo Waste Pipe Angles

[darkan9el]

Hi all, I need to move my loo to accommodate a shower, it will be a sidewards move, this will take it away from the vertical pipe it feeds into by about 4-5ft.

Is there a minimum fall it has to be?

Where its sited Now

Where I want it putting

The recommended minimum fall is 1 in 40, or one Inch per Metre (if you don't mind the mixed units)

Most soil pipe bends etc. are made with angles of 87.5 or 92.5 degrees, giving a fall of about 1 in 25.

You may get away with as little as 18mm per Metre fall.

Thanks for the specs ticklyt, will have to work out if its feasible now

@ Kirkgas: I made them myself, with a program called Google Sketchup great for things like this but you can do a lot more.
