Hi
I have recently bought a house where an extension has been built through the upstairs toilet. It leaves a bathroom which needs renewing and i would like to install a new toilet,but unfortunatley the sewage pipe is the wrong side of the hallway to the bathroom. There is not enough room under the floor of the upstairs to lay the large waste pipe and i do not want to install a saniflo.
I have thought of a way but i am unsure whether it will work or be allowed?
I would like to run the sewage pipe down the outside wall and back into the house and under the floor boards on the ground floor there is a least a foot depth and easy access below the damp proof course. The pipe would then continue for approx 16ft through another wall to reach the downstairs toilet. This toilet is below the height of the floor boards and therefore easy to gain access to drill a hole to poke the pipe through. The pipe would then somehow have to connect to the drainage of the existing toilet which i think is a S trap as the toilet goes straight down into the sewage because the toilet is so low. Is it possible to connect two toilet waste pipes to a S trap and what slope do i need to achieve on the waste pipe?
Thanks for any advice.
