Re: vent basment shower
Author: steve (CA) What exactly are installing and where is it located? The vent needs to be on the street side of the trap. A vertical wye can't be used for a vent take-off. Any drawings/pictures would be big asset in getting proper info. Are you aware of the plumbing laws in MA(ie-homeowners can't do their own work)? Edited 1 times.
