What is a 32mm Telescopic P Trap?
A 32mm telescopic P trap is a specialized plumbing fitting used to connect a bathroom basin waste to the drainage system. The “P” shape is designed to hold a permanent column of water, which acts as a liquid seal to stop foul air from the sewers entering your home. Unlike fixed-height traps, the telescopic P trap features a sliding inlet pipe, giving you the flexibility to adjust the height to match your specific plumbing layout without having to cut or extend pipes.
Why Choose a 76mm Water Seal?
In the UK, building regulations often specify a “deep seal” for appliances that may be prone to siphoning. Our 32mm telescopic P trap features a substantial 76mm water seal. This depth ensures that even when other appliances in the house are used (creating pressure changes in the pipes), the water barrier in your basin trap remains intact. This is the most reliable way to prevent “empty trap” syndrome and the associated bad smells.
Engineered for Easy, Leak-Free Installation
At ECO HEAT SHOP, we prioritize professional-grade reliability. This 32mm telescopic P trap is manufactured from high-quality white polypropylene, making it resistant to boiling water and common household chemicals. It uses easy-to-tighten compression nuts and high-performance rubber seals, allowing for a hand-tightened, leak-free connection. The universal outlet is compatible with both plastic waste pipes (to BS EN 1451-1) and traditional copper pipes.

Installation Advice: When installing your 32mm telescopic P trap, ensure the rubber “O” rings are seated flat before tightening the nuts. Hand-tightening is usually sufficient; over-tightening with a wrench can distort the plastic threads. Periodically unscrew the base of the trap to clear any trapped hair or debris.
