Good afternoon, please see my attached diagrams

One is the current layout
And one is where I propose to add another boss to add a shower waste.

This horizontal run is below floorboards but I can't get to the TEE or under the tee to add a boss vertically.

( the current Bath is bossed way in above the tee and hasn't even got a fall, so certainly can't be used for a shower tray )

So I was thinking of cutting the 4 inch and adding a separate Boss adaptor like the one I've attached in the image So it's separate from the basin waste. (Just using one of the holes in the adaptor)

Or should I put the basin and shower waste into the one boss adaptor (basin through top hole and shower through side hole) I just wasn't keen on bossing the shower into the side of the horizontal pipe instead of the top

Will this be okay ? Many thanks

Thanks @fowlerboi I shall buy two of the short boss adaptors which I attached an Image of and re do the horizontal length and use solvent weld boss adaptors coming out the fitti g with it been underfloor.

do you prefer these adaptors over strap on bosses?

I like the boss couplings more than the strap on type as the strap on can fail if the clip breaks etc
