maxsan Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 We live in a modern sous sol house about 40 years old which is on mains drainage. Anyway my question is I have a soil stack to my upstairs loo which runs down inside the house. I have it in mind to put it on the outside of the house with a vent to the roof. Can anyone tell if this is legal here as not many french houses seem to have soil stacks on the outside a la the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxsan Posted June 28, 2005 Author Share Posted June 28, 2005 I know. My question was is this because it is the law or is it because it is tradition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opel Fruit<P><BR>Opel Fruit, Dept. 53<P> Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Sorry if the inference was unclear...according to a local architect we use, the answer is that stacks must be "within the walls". Whether this is regional or national, I don't know. I assume you have asked the Mairie for some guidance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
