Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the best practices for running DWV under a slab on grade. I am building a small accessory unit with a "wet room." The unit is going to be 12'x16' and I am designing a very small wet wall between the kitchen and bathroom. The shower will essentially be a concrete sloped floor with a drain in the bottom.
Here is a question I have:
-I am trying to keep my pipe runs UNDER THE SLAB to a limited length. I know where I am going to tie in to a main line once outside the structure foundation. Is this a best practice? Or is it ok to run as much piping under the foundation as needed. I am in a cold climate so I am curious as to what the pro's consider to be a well-designed DWV under a slab on grade.
Here are some pictures. Am I missing any vents? Does anyone have any better suggestions on how to run the DWV? Again, I don't have much space and I want to keep pipes off the exterior wall. In the picture, I haven't drawn the slab so just imagine I will be deep below the frost line too.
Thanks.
