Trap Installation

The difference between a flawlessly functioning drainage system that supports a building for decades and one that suffers from persistent blockages, unpleasant odours, and inconvenient leaks comes down to one non-negotiable step: precision trap installation.

Traps are the unsung heroes of domestic drainage. Whether it is a bath trap, a general bottle trap, a pedestal trap, or an undersink trap, their proper function depends entirely on the installer’s skill and accuracy. A trap installed with incorrect fall, a compromised water seal, or poorly seated components is not just a minor error; it is a guaranteed future call-back, leading to water damage, offensive smells, and significant harm to your professional reputation.

This course is engineered to transform your technique, moving beyond mere theory to focus specifically on the technical do’s and don’ts required to achieve a secure, guaranteed, odour-free, and most importantly, leak-free system as specified in the Polypipe Building Products Above Ground Installation Guide.
