A drain lines requires a 1/4" slope per foot. So for 15' you will need 3.75" of clearance. Your problem will be working in such a tight area to cut the cast drain, you'll need to either buy or just rent the tool, or hire a plumber out to do it for you. Here's a link that'll show how to tap a cast drain line:

There is only 18" of clearance under the house. There are no drain lines anywhere around where the washer is going to be installed. The closest drain is to the bathroom sink, and it is roughly 15' away. The drain from the bathroom sink goes straight down into the ground.
SO, can someone give me an idea of how to connect the washer drain into the sink drain? I'd like to run the new drain in PVC, and tap into the cast drain. Can I get enough fall over 15', since there is only 18" of clearance?
Any help appreciated. Thanks
