NEW BATHROOM DRAINAGE

[sanjay2468]

NEED SOME ADVICE.
CREATING A NEW BATHROOM IN MY HOUSE AND NEED SOME HELP ON CONNECTING TO THE DRAINS.
IN THE NEW BATHROOM THERE WILL BE A SHOWER, WASHBASIN AND WC.
THE EXISTING KITCHEN IS NEXT TO WHERE I WILL BE PUTTING THE BATHROOM SO THAT MEANS THERE WILL BE PIPES TO CONNECT TO THERE.
SHOULD I INSTALL A DURGO VALVE?
ANY ADVICE WILL BE HELPFUL
THE HOUSE IS A BUNGALOW
THANKS IN ADVANCE.

You will probably need a new soil stack (like I had to) but you should consult with BCO for any new drains work.

how far away from the existing soil stack will the wc be?

 

[sanjay2468]

THE EXISTING SOIL IS AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HOUSE, 20 METRES.

20m!! A new soil vent for sure rather than a Durgo.

And no more expensive either

I often find that the shower waste is the first thing to consider, as it will be the lowest and dictates the maximum height of the connection to any existing drainage, bearing in mind the requirement for an 18% fall for pipework from shower trap to drain connection.
