Well, probably not. For 2 large volume appliances such as washing
machines and dishwashers etc... you really want 2" wastes in all the
common runs otherwise you can end up with a wet floor if both machines
pump out at once. Most reasonably installed wastes will be 1.5" and
could even be 1.25" depending on how [un]well it was installed.


I've not got problems with mine, but of course it will depend on the
output delivery of the machines. Or is there a standard?
