4,000+ ft BUT it has to be vented properly with the correct pitch and treated as a soil horiziontal line and then the vent calculated on the developed lenght or pipng and fittings and allow for cleanouts at every change of direction greater then 45 Deg and install a clean out every 50 ft at a right angle to the soil line flow. BUT check your local code as some have no clue to proper venting

Can you connect a new toilet to an older toilet vent?
Yes if the vent pipe is 4" and vertical by code and there is nothing connected between your toilet tee and where you would connect your new toilet tee.

If you have a vent pipe that is less then 3" and or you have other vents connected between your old toilet tee and your new toilet tee then NO you can not connect a new tee for your toilet.

The laundry waste pipe is fitted to the main drain near the toilet and the main pipe down the line past toilet is partly plugged, forcing the laundry waste up the toilet waste tube.
