Hello,
I don't belief the IPC lists "suds relief" or keeping a minimum distance of 8 ft from washing machine stacks (From other stacks). Only an obscure old reference from the UPC. I have never seen this called out on any plumbing plans. Only a slight reference to it recently brought it up in my mind.
Is suds relief (the above code), still relevant at all?
What if there is a combined bathroom group stack with a washing machine tied into the common 4" sanitary stack (5 stories tall)? Is this considered a "suds stack"?
Thanks
