can't you go straight up from the bottom orange ground socket to a branch, turned 90 degrees anti clock from what you have it currently and then use a bend to go through the wall _________________ Decking |

Hi Tim
no if i use the 90 degrees it will not be align, as it will go more over to anti clockwise and this is why i had to use 45 degrees to keep close to the branch. |

Just get the Building Inspector out, make sure you do the air test though and if there is just a 1mm drop, he will behead you  |

What about digging out and lining it all up properly with a rod access point? A bit more work but the right way to do it as anything else is a bodge in my opinion.

| Hi Other than the turning the socket below the branch through 180 degrees and achieving vertical for aesthetic reasons i see no problem. Although off sets are frowned upon, in this situation with and access cap on the top of the branch any problems with blockages can easily be sorted With the vertical height of the stack and absence of waste pipes, compression (blowing of traps from other sanitary fittings is not a issue.) As for testing you can plug drain in manhole (tie string to plug as they can slip out under pressure and completely block drain down stream of manhole.)Simply flush toilet, you will find the water level in the WC raised above normal, leave for 3 min if no change in level the installation is sound. I certainly would not cercern my self with Building inspection with a job of this size, providing its sound. Good Luck |
