MTL_Inspet_Man Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 From todays Inspection. Single family home - Trap underneath the kitchen sink. Double bowl - stainless steel Looks different from what I am used to but still me thinks it's wrong. All intelligent comments are appreciated.

Chad Fabry Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Only one trap to an arm. The basins should be connected by a wye or tee and then drain to a single trap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Katen Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 That set-up is allowed here in New Jersey under the National Standard Plumbing Code. It allows a sanitary tee on it's side? - Jim Katen, Oregon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Whitmore Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 That isn't vented properly either-- the trap weir(s) are too high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTL_Inspet_Man Posted March 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 In my 3 yrs - never seen a setup like that. I believe that the one trap to one arm is true As for the venting - yes its wrong too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
