Moving basement bathroom around and there is a shower drain but no toilet drain. Shower min is 2” and toilet min is 3”. If they installed a 2” drain is my only option to break up the concrete and install a new 3” line? Thanks.

So for a toilet. I have an old style toilet that pumps 6litres of water. The big tank. Will that work in the basement or do I need a specialty one that doesn’t use gravity

This is dependent on is you have proper slope down to the outlet.

Very little slope, or (forbid), any uphill, and you need the proper basement model.

Break the floor up and install a 3 inch or 4 inch drain and vent for your toilet.

You will be asking the question.

" How deep is a frog pond?"

" Kneedeep, Kneedeep."
