Hi,
I have a building of 4 stories that has a DWV drainage system.
Every waste and soil stack is accompanied by a vent stack.
Waste and waste and soil stacks are connected to inspection chambers on the ground floor level. The inspection chambers are position away from the building by a reasonable distance.
All fixtures on the ground floor are connected directly to the inspection chambers.
My question is regarding venting the fixtures on the ground floor. Do I have to bring the vent pipes down to the ground level to provide a means to vent the fixtures there?
I've seen before cases where no venting was connected to fixtures on the ground level when they were directly connected to the inspection chambers.
If the answer is that it is NOT a must to connect these ground floor fixtures to the vent stacks, can someone please provide an explanation as to why not?
Regards.
