Plumbing Vent Layout

Good venting is why a toilet flushes with a clean pull and a sink drains without gurgling, and nobody notices it until it's done wrong. Every fixture on two floors ties into one stack through the roof in ArcSite's plumbing vent layout.

Key Features

This plumbing vent layout includes:

  • Two-story section view up through the roof
  • 3" soil stack from the building drain to the roof
  • 2" vent stack running beside the soil stack
  • 1-1/2" vents serving the upper-floor fixtures
  • Toilet and lavatory on the lower floor
  • Toilet, lavatory, and a second sink on the upper floor
  • Building drain sloping out below the first floor
  • Color-coded legend for each pipe size

The 2" vent stack reconnects to the soil stack above the upper floor, so both floors share one roof penetration instead of two.

Design tips

What is a Plumbing Vent Layout?

A vent layout shows how air enters the drain system so water rushing down the pipes doesn't pull the fixture traps dry. Draw your own stack and vent sizes on this section in ArcSite, and your inspector gets a drawing that matches what's in the wall.
