Why does gurgles noise come from bathtub when commode is flushed?
In order for water to flow down a pipe, there must be a vent to allow the air to escape. Above a toilet, on the roof, there is usually a pipe or a vent hood, which is connected to the drain pipe. When the toilet is flushed, the sound of water draining can be heard issuing from this vent. In addition to the above answer, the air rushing through the water may be the cause of the gurgling sound, which is the air escaping through the vent to prevent the build up of air pressure inside your water system.
If you have a 2' PVC pipe in your basement floor and it is sealed and marked ho vent can you add a utility sink drain to this if it is on a septic system?
Shouldn't be a problem. You may need to extend the pipe at the sink a bit to put in air vent so that the drain can vent. It is a checkvalve that lets in air when the sink drains. Or you can tie into the existing vent stack if possible.
