Hey All-- New here as this is something I have not had to do on this scale before. I am renovating our laundry room, which currently only has the hookups for the washing machine box, but I want to add a sink as well. So I need some help with running the drain pipe mostly to make sure it is correct and to code for both the new sink drain and the washer drain pipe. This pic is how the setup currently is. The sink will be going on the right (where the washer box is now, indicated by the Yellow box) and the washer box will be moved over to the left as I indicated with my lackluster drawing skills. The water pipes seem pretty simple as I just need to add some Tees to get them over to the new laundry box but they are in a good spot for where the sink will be going.



But as for the drain, I am really not sure. I was "thinking" of just adding a new sanitary tee on the middle drain pipe (above the current sanitary tee) and having it facing left, and using the same configuration that is currently on the right side, and running that to the new washer box-- But I am not at all sure if you can have 2 sanitary Tees on one pipe like that. Or would it be better to cut that out and just use a double sanitary tee? Also, for the new sink drain, what would be the best way to get that from the current configuration to the current drain pipe? Could I just cut the right pipe (the old washer drain) and add a 2"- 1 1/2" coupler and attached the sink drain to that?



Thanks in advance for any help everyone!!

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...
