    Default bath waste question

    I am about to install a new bath and was hoping to put the trap under the timber floor ( the house is on stumps). My question is how much of a fall (how long a piece of pipe) can you have from the bath waste to the trap without creating so much momentum that the water flushes straight through the trap? I hope this makes sense!!
    Cheers

    You could have forty feet if you wanted to....water will always be caught in the trap no matter how long the vertical drop is
    Ours is not to reason why.....only to point and giggle.

    25mm - 35 mm per meter is what your looking for. if you have more than that just set the pipe down with 2 -45 degree bends.
    If you dont play it, it's not an instrument!
