In a medical setting, sink waste pipes should not be directly connected to toilet waste pipes due to the risk of contamination and the potential for biohazard exposure. Proper Plumbing design requires separate drainage systems for sinks and toilets to maintain hygiene and prevent backflow of pathogens. Additionally, local plumbing codes often mandate such separation to ensure safety and compliance with health regulations. Therefore, maintaining distinct waste disposal systems is essential for infection control and patient safety.

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 not worried about codes then yes you can connect to a 3" vent line if no other vent lines are connected down stream. 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.
