Routing drainage pipe to soil stack? Drainage and wastage systems and plumbing help, advice and answers

[kristeva]

Hi all, I'm currently in the middle of a bathroom overhaul and I need to run 50mm drainage from my basin to a soil pipe. The pipe will exit the wall roughly here on the photo and I was just wondering how you guys would run it from there to the soil pipe? Its probably a stupid question, I ask because its already quite close proximity to the soil pipe and the gas boiler outlet is partially blocking the run beneath. And of course I want to keep building control happy. Should I just run straight down and into a 90 joint / boss strap? Cheers. K

Hi kristeva
Preferably bring it out of the wall 3 brick courses higher and go into a boss strap round the soil pipe.
Or, bring it out where shown and use 2x 90 deg bends to get it into the boss on the T.

Thanks Stoneboy.

To route a drainage pipe to a soil stack, start by digging a trench from the pipe's source point to the soil stack. Then, lay down perforated pipes so that they are at least 6 inches beneath the ground surface. Afterward, fill in the space around the pipes with gravel or pebbles before covering them with a layer of geotextile fabric. Finally, add another layer of earth and pack it firmly around the pipe before connecting it to your soil stack.
