    Re: Any suggestions for replacing a washing machine waste tr

    Any suggestions for a new trap type would be appreciated as this one must be fully dismantled, cleaned, taped and reassembled regularly to remain fully functional. Thanks again for all your help, hopefully these pictures are clear enough.

    And finally an up-close of the trap itself…

    1) is an up-close of the trap.

    2) is a slightly panned out shot:

    Your guess is correct but the pipe is under the sink and there’s not a lot of height to play with. I have taken some photos but I’m not sure how to add them on this forum.

    But it’s not the pipework itself that is causing the problem with flow but the trap – it gets clogged very quickly as I live in an extremely hard water area and the limescale combined with the normal fibres and hairs means a regular clean out is needed. I was wondering if there was an easy to dismantle waste trap available or if I’m stuck dismantling & reassembling this one every few months. Thanks for your help.
