A wet vent uses one pipe to serve as both a drain and a vent for another fixture. Here is the Blacksburg guide.
The concept
One fixture's drain line can also vent another fixture when sized and arranged correctly.
The benefit
Wet venting saves space and simplifies the piping in a bathroom group.
The limits
Code sets strict rules on which fixtures can wet vent and how they connect.
The call
Design the venting to code. Call 888-217-3585 and Blacksburg Plumbing Pros will match you with a Blacksburg pro.
