Hello, my understanding is that the water seal depth is supposed to be at least 50mm. I was about to use this mcalpine trap, but it only has a water seal of 25mm https://mcalpineplumbing.com/traps/...90cp10-53c-90mm-shallow-shower-trap-53mm-high
The reason I was going to use that one is not actually for it's shallow height but because the outlet pipe is high up, so I can get enough of a fall on the waste pipe. It's quite annoying that for all the other traps I've looked at, the outlet is coming out too low down to get the fall needed.
Can someone explain why mcalpine is making a trap that doesn't meet the required regulation for the water seal? What have I misunderstood?
