Water and Drain Line Location


Hey All,

Just a quick question regarding new sink drain and water services.

I am installing 2 - sinks where there was none and need to know if there is a typical rough height for the drain and water lines from the floor. Also I wanted to know if there is "typical" spacing for these items from each other. I am thinking that this is somewhat of a "typical" dimension.

I installed a similar setup in the second floor bath and found that I had to add an extension to the drain line and the shutoffs seemed cramped.

Any help would be appreciated.

Water and Drain Line Location


Drain, about 17 inches from floor with a 4 in. offset from center line depending on the location of the trap. Supply lines 6-8 in. from center line roughly 2-3 in. above drain keeping in mind ease of service in the future.
