 Venting question
Author: BeeJayKay (Canada)

Hello Everyone and thank you in advance for your answers,
I would like to move my main kitchen sink approximately 16 feet from where it is. Where it is now is vented up the wall behind it, through the attic and the roof. The drain goes downstairs and into the basement floor about halfway in between where the sink is now and where I'd like to put the new one.
When I put in the new sink, I intend to keep the plumbing for the "old" sink in place and turn it into a prep/bar sink.
My question is: If the old sink plumbing is vented and the new sink shares the same drain, would the new sink also vented?
