John Kogel Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Buddy did some bathroom renos. Two sinks back to back, each with a trap connected by a Tee and then a third trap connected to a vent stack. I think he felt the lower trap was needed to keep sewer gas out of the sink drains. Would it be acceptable to just have elbows under the sinks connecting to the lower trap? Or would that be too simple?

Jim Katen Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 I don't see how the two sinks are related to one another. Each separately looks like it could use a plumbing 101 p-trap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kogel Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Pic 2 sink is behind the wall of pic 1 sink. The Tee joining them is in the trap arm of sink 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Baird Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 ...you mean the tee laying sideways? The third trap is "too much sugar for a dime", as they say down here. Isn't the max trap arm length to vent stack about 42"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
