Default Bath waste and HepVo

The HepVO elbow is 92.5 degrees so that the slope is achieved. It
does work because I have done it.

Two things to note though

- If you don't have enough depth below the bath and there is much of a
length of pipe, you can end up bringing the pipe back to being
horizontal and then you will have a reduction in draining.

- Do make sure that you get the orientation of the trap correct as
viewed from the side - outlet and ribs to the bottom.


Andy, glad to hear someone has used one of these HepVo traps. The
length of the pipe is approx. 2 metres. So I'm not going to get much
of a slope (problem with bath being turned around). Thanks for the tip
about the ribs being at the bottom!

Cheers

Dave


Would it be realistic to raise the bath a little?
