Chris Bernhardt Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Image Insert: 77.36 KB Can you put a bend between the trap outlet and the drain arm like this? I would say not technically but it would be easy to disassemble and clean still. Chris, Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n/a30 Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 As long as the drain line is vented correctly, the trap should work fine. I have seen far more "creative" designs that work. Why the concern? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bernhardt Posted August 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Well, I thought that 90 degree bends are only allowed before the trap in the tail piece sections between the sink basins and the trap inlet. Also many traps are sold as a kit with the trap arm and maybe I am just assuming that the proper configuration is to have the trap arm connected directly to the trap outlet.

fqp25 Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 I do believe that is considered a J-Trap configuration. I was always schooled that there can only be 1 slip joint connection after the outlet of the trap. If that 90 bend going into the wall were to be schedule 40 piping, (Instead of slip joint piping) it would be ok, technically. If there is no sings of recent leaks, I don't think I would make a big deal about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
