Drainage run questions


Vijay

Recommended Posts

Morning,

 

Just looking at my drainage runs and wondered a few things:

 

My drainage runs are inside the envelope. Is there any reason I couldn't connect downstairs toilets to the stacks that drop down from upper floors?

 

For a kitchen island, would that need it's own 110 waste pipe or could I run a 50mm waste pipe from the island and join it to the 110 waste pipe that serves the kitchen sink and utility room? 

 

Cheers

50mm from the island, use a swept tee at the point it runs into the slab and bring the other end of the tee up with a 45 degree bend and a screwed access plug on it. That way you can get a rod into it with care...!

Cheers Peter. So you mean the actual 50mm pipe would go through the slab at 45 degrees?

 

Would the 50mm drainage pipe for an island run under the beam and block floor like the other drainage or would it be put say within the floor insulation?

The 50mm to the island is vertical off the swept T , the 45 just has a short piece coming up at an angle to allow for rodding in future if required. 

In my understanding,

which is quite a good idea imo..

I would put it into the insulation and then screed over it.
