Description

What is a 40mm Shallow Bath P Trap used for?

A Shallow Bath P Trap is a specialized plumbing component used when vertical space under a bathtub is severely limited. Standard traps often require more depth than modern low-profile baths allow. This trap utilizes a 19mm water seal to prevent foul sewer gases from entering the bathroom while maintaining the lowest possible physical height. It is the go-to “problem-solver” for renovations involving concrete floors or low-set joists.

Why Choose a 19mm Seal Trap?

In some installations, a standard 50mm seal trap simply will not fit. At ECO HEAT SHOP, we supply the Shallow Bath P Trap for these specific scenarios. Manufactured from high-impact white polypropylene, it is built to withstand high water temperatures and domestic cleaning chemicals. The rigid P-trap configuration ensures a smooth, consistent flow of water, which is vital for preventing the buildup of hair and soap scum in shallow drainage systems.

Trade Tips for Installation

Because of the reduced 19mm seal depth, this Shallow Bath P Trap is best suited for installations where the waste run is short and well-vented. The universal compression outlet allows for a secure connection to both solvent-weld and push-fit 40mm plastic pipes. The swivel adjustment on the outlet further assists in aligning the trap with existing pipework in tight, awkward spaces.
