Hi,

I am installing a new toilet into my en-suite bathroom (there isn't one there currently). There is an existing soil pipe under the floor that I can connect to but it is not vented and is currently just used for the shower waste.

There is a toilet on the other side of my house that does have a vented soil pipe.

I have a septic tank in the garden and both soil pipes ultimately feed into that same tank. They meet together outside my backdoor and then there is a single pipe that feeds into the septic tank.

Do I need to extend the soil pipe where i am fitting the toilet the roof so that its vented or can I just fit an AAV?

Hi, I'm wondering if this is allowed or will work in the UK. We currently have all our waste water connecting to a single vented stack. The pipes from the toilets etc connect to the vertical stack via a horizontal pipe as you would expect. I'm about to renew all the soil pipes. We have 2 entry...

Hi there I have an existing soil stack on the side of my house. I have extended the house by building a loft. The loft company ran the waste from the loft over the roof straight into (i.e. closing off) what was the soil pipe - and added an AAV at loft level. However now I am reroofing and...
