? Bathroom Demo Back to Back toilets
I am starting a bathroom demo. I have back to back toilets/plumbing in the hallway bath and master bath. At times when flush the toilet in one bathroom air goes into other toilet. Amatuer diy question, but if I take out the toilet in one bathroom for a few weeks, do I have to worry about any water coming into the toilet stack in the bathroom I am remolding or will it just be some air or not affected at all when I flush the other toilet I can live without one toilet during remodel but not both.
Thanks,
Derek

You should never have water rising up from a drain pipe. If the pipe runs are short, say the toilet ties in immediately across from another toilet the most I'd expect to see is some minor splashing. Still, with a toilet removed you should cover/seal the hole to prevent sewer gasses from escaping.
"At times when flush the toilet in one bathroom air goes into other toilet."
Do you have a clog or any reason to suspect something other than how the piping was run? Here is an article I found about that problem with back to back toilets.
