    Multiple P traps design

    Terrible diagram. But can I set up a bathroom like this. I’ll be getting a plumber to do it but before I call the plumber I’d like to know my options as I’ll be building the walls etc… I can’t have p trap directly under shower drain due to lack of room. So it runs 60cm to external wall with p...

    Heads up on dry condensation traps boys.

    Just left a job literally, tenant contacted landlord with smell of gas. Tightness okay, gas sniffer didn’t pick up anything either. I got out the analyser and 50ppm in airing cupboard, tenant had rammed a ton of junk in the cupboard and dislodged the condensate pipe. The trap was bone dry....she...

    Do Floplast Anti-Vac Bottle Traps Work?

    I have bought one of these traps but there is no visible air admittance valve. Inside there is a narrow tube with one end in the water inside the trap and the other end going up to I'm not sure where. I cannot figure out how this is even meant to work.

    Overflow Pipe indoors

    Hi, I've recently purchased a new property and need to replace the hot water system. The property only has electric and for simplicity I'm thinking of fitting a vented, direct water cylinder.

    Am I getting my traps mixed up

    Customer has just had a new bathroom fitted. Basin waste runs directly into an unvented soil stack. As a consequence as the basin drains it makes an awful gurgling sound. I have done away with the bottle trap that bathroom installer used and fitted an anti vac pedestal trap. When I left all...

    Fulidmaster Pro series Traps

    Not impressed at all! Thought they would be Mcalpine quality but are worse than Polypipe traps. To be fair the adjustable trap I fitted didn't leak but it was poorly made and the nut jumped off its thread with very little pressure hand tight. Plumbing Supply | Flush Toilet | Wax and Wax-Free...
