Default New plumbing code for ex wives.

new-plumbing-code-ex-wives-insp-019.jpg
Here is a great pick of a home plumber who did most of his own work. This is the drain for the shower. There is no trap and the 4 inch that it goes into is the main vent. The toilet is two feet away on the other side feeding directly in to the 4 inch main vent. Right below the tub connection.
The Lady of the house said she had to burn incense so she could get rid of the smell. I wonder if she got the plumbing work as a valentines day gift.

Am I seeing the picture right Mark? It looks like he also cut out an entire section of floor joist to accommodate this hack job.
