I’m not a plumber either so I could be completely wrong, but I believe it’s a minimum viable vent diagram.
What do you think is missing?
I basically have a drain with no vent or p-trap or anything and I’m hoping this would be a viable fix (you could imagine the right “column” as a straight line and that would be the current configuration)
I can confidently say: maybe or maybe not. I really think you have too much context in your head and not here
That's definitely something I'm guilty of from time to time.
Does this help?
* Drawing not to scale
Wow, that giant comb is a really cool feature for a home. It must save so much time getting ready, not having to do that by hand
/s
But yes, thanks. That clarifies what you’re trying to do
I can’t believe the tool I was using had a Hair pick icon but not a shower head icon 🤣
(Also I thought I hid it better than that…good eye)
More importantly, what will your neighbors say about you showering in your front doorway in view of everyone?
I’m not an expert so was hoping a little discussion here would encourage one to speak up. However I thought I remembered a thread discussing some vertical distance above and below where the drain horizontal joins the vent, however I didn’t find anything like that.
This site has some min-max measurements that may be useful to check against
