Hello dear forum members,
Attached you will find two images: one shows the drainage layout proposed by our civil engineer, and the other is from our gas and water installer. The civil engineer suggests two vent pipes going through the roof because he believes this will prevent potential problems. I personally prefer the solution from the installer, which uses only one roof vent. If I interpret DIN 1986-100 correctly, there is nothing that opposes this.
What are your thoughts? Is there any technical reason this could cause issues?
As you can see in the photos, these are the two versions!
Thank you very much for your help

MorteMorte23 May 2021 07:51Good morning, it is a standard townhouse with an uninhabited attic with a hipped roof. Above the utility room is the bathroom with a bathtub, a shower, and a toilet. Below that, in the utility room, there is a washing machine and the condensate drain of the boiler. Guest toilet and kitchen are as shown in the pictures. I would like to know if the vent pipe through the roof is sufficient so that everything runs through one pipe as I have drawn it. Regards

Your structural engineer prefers the safer option, while your installer favors the somewhat simpler one.
As a layperson, I see the advantage in having two independent lines, since the second line is routed separately away from the house. If one gets blocked, you won’t have to go to your neighbor’s to shower—unless the blockage is after the junction where the lines merge.
In my opinion, both options will work.
