I am a plumber that has installed plumbing using the uniform plumbing code [UPC}
in that code it is not allowed
the new international code [IPC} allows all kinds of things that are illegal in the upc
quite frankly in my opinion the IPC was influenced by building contractors who simply want to build a cheaper house
and are willing to cut corners to do it
But hey man, I am also against the use of Auto vents, And believe that a house with more than 2 bathrooms has to have a 4''
trunk
The possibility of the lower drains vent being cut off by the upper waste is what chaps my rear end.
