Hi Guys,
I need to locate a vent pipe that I can tie into for adding a vent for a sink. I have found a pipe that looks to be either 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 inch located in a perfect spot. Yeah, I know...I'll look at it closer later to figure out the exact size. The pipe comes across the ceiling and then turns up through the ceiling passing through the floor above. It's likely going up through a wall cavity.
The problem is, I can't tell if its a drain or if its a vent. I know the best way to determine that is to try and trace the pipe but in this case I can't.
Are there any tricks of the trade to help identify what it is?
