Can I connect my washing machine waste pipe to this standing pipe?

[Deano75]

I have moved our washing machine into the garage but there isn’t a drain for the waste pipe. The attached image is of the waste pipe with the condensate pipe from the boiler, can I use a tee join and connect the washing machine pipe? The pipe leads outside and is saddled to the main waste pipe.

Put a new downpipe parallel to that one and Tee it in near the bottom.

So like this?

Yes. But you’ll need a U bend at the bottom to isolate any smells.

Like this? Sorry for being such a noob 😞

Yes make new downpipe as long as possible. I'd convert to pushfit after a new compression Tee so any blockages could be cleared.

just wanted to double check that this won’t affect the boiler at all?

Won’t effect boiler providing you don’t go above the boiler with the washing machine hose / pipework
