Default Bath and Basin waste.

I did exactly this in my bathroom, I did use an anti-syphon trap from
Screwfix on the sink though. No problems so far

Just a quickie :-)

In my bathroom, the 40mm waste pipe from the bath (enclosed on the

floor
against a wall) passes the wash basin. The wash basin has it's own

32mm
waste pipe and both pipes run (inside the bathroom - no option)

together
to
the point of exit to the soil pipe outside. Would there be anything to

stop
me simply joining the basin waste to the bath waste pipe by means of a

Tee
and thus having only one waste pipe for the remaining run to the exit?

TIA.


no problem, 40mm t with a reducer on the 32mm entry


If you do this you will pull a vac on the basin trap and at best it
will glug when empting the bath at worst it will empty the trap
leaving you with nasty smells. If you really need to do this use a
hep'v'o air admittance valve instead of the trap on the basin. Rob
