toilet should have a vent with in three feet of down pipe, but as long as you are with in the drop range for hori. pipe run you can go as far as you want, but you need that air vent close as you can so that the suction from the toilet water does not pull the rest of water from toilet base(p trap).

∙ 13y agoAccording to International Plumbing Code table 906.1 the maximum distance any trap can be from its vent is no more than 4 x's the pipe diameter. However the trap of a toilet is an integral trap, and is also above the vent serving it. In other words the trap itself doesn't rely directly on the vent to maintain its seal. The fixture drain serving the toilet must be vented to relieve back pressure caused by the toilets flush cycle. There isn't a clear cut answer in the International Plumbing Code, but in my opinion it's best to stick with table 906.1 and keep it within 4 pipe diameters (ie: 3" pipe x 4 = 12') of your vent.

What fraction is closet to 1?
If you are talking about it on the number line, there is no such fraction because the base/denominator of the fraction can get very high. As in there is no maximum limit to numbers and there is also no limit to the maximum denominator. The bigger the denominator, the smaller the fraction is and the closer it is to one on the number line. Therefore if you are talking about the number line then it will be like 1/x. If you are talking about in terms of value, then 1/2 is the closest.
How do you adjust the water level in the bowl of a water closet?
If you are talking about a low water level, this usually can be adjusted by insuring the fill line from the ball-cock (fill valve) is not clogged. This runs water into the overflow tube inside your tank and insures there is enough water in the bowl to create a seal and prevent sewer gas from comming up through the water closet. If you want less water in the bowl, this is usually regulated by the manufacturer of the water closet by the height of the "S Trap" molded into the bowl.
How do you vent an interior closet for an electric water heater closet?
An electric water heater does not need a vent (or flue) though you will want a plumed out piping on the pop-off valve on the heater. We've got that but the supply line (cold) is insulated but sweating; probably due to change in water temperature vs. ambient temperature. The water heater is inside the closet which is accessed from within our bedroom closet. There is no roof vent and there is a door on the closet. My thought is to put two vents--one down low & one up high--in an effort to allow the moisture to escape. Any thoughts?

What does halfway to the goal mean in football as a penalty?
The maximum distance that can be given as a penalty in American football is half the distance to the opponent's goalline; for example, if you were on the 15-yard line and received 10 yards of penalty, the maximum you could gain is 7.5, or 8 yards rounded.
What is the maximum horizontal distance allowed in suction line of a pump which is above the water level?
The maximum distance will be relative to the efficiency of the pump and the rated flow of the pump vs the size of the suction hose. The more efficient the pump, the more vacuum it can draw, and the larger the suction hose in relation to the flow rating of the pump the farther you can move the pump away from the water. The manufacturer of the pump will have charts that will help you properly size and set up your pump for optimum performance.
