Question About Toilets/Plumbing
 
If I wanted to dispose large amounts of liquid into my central sewage system, could I use a transfer pump and pump the liquid into the toilet? If I stuck the hose past the trapway of the toilet and started pumping, would that work? I feel like it would, but I'm not sure. Would I flood the toilet, or would it kind of flush itself?

Asking for a friend. I'll hang up and listen.

nah, transfer it into a working clean-out if you can

The toilet will self flush if you pour it in the bowl, as long as you aren't pouring faster than it will go down obviously.

Any more questions Jessie?

4" clean out, should be outside...unscrew the cap and pump the liquid down the cleanout

I'm an expert...let me work up a plan for you. Just kidding.

Meth lab?

Seriously, what liquid?

Ming the Merciless 11-25-2014 03:08 PM

youcould also just take the toilet off and go right down the poo hole...two bolts and some wax...

depends on how 'large' of a volume of liquid youre pumping and whether or not you have easier access to a clean-out

Is there a clean out somewhere? If so that would be the proper place to try that I would think.
If this is in the city just dump it down the storm drain in the curb.

I'll have to check. It's at a little strip mall. This seems like the obvious way to go. But I'm still wondering about the toilet route.

Not practical for me to remove the toilet in this situation. It's an office in a strip mall and I'm not sure if there is an accessible sewage cleanout. I'll have to check.

Ask Saul then and you'll be good to go

you could also remove the p-trap and go straight down the 2" drain pipe through the wall under the sink...

would probably be better than trying to go through the toilet unless youre sure your hose can wind through the whole toilet without kinking

its smaller than the poo hole (3" -4") but 2" can handle some decent volume if you bypass the p-trap...which might be only connected with hand-tigethened nuts

Ming the Merciless 11-25-2014 03:24 PM

how many gallons are you talking about?

how fast will the water be flowing

Ming the Merciless 11-25-2014 03:31 PM

Might be best way?
