Installed outside, they are usually found under a downspout or external grey wastewater discharge point. In general, they are comprised of a grating/grid, to prevent unwanted debris from falling into the drains, and some sort of water trap, that holds just enough water back from the drain to prevent nasty odours from coming back out.

A waste trap uses a water barrier to stop the foul smelling gas and odour from a foul drain from entering a room. On every appliance in the home that uses water and then has to drain it away, it must have a waste trap installed. This trap provides a seal between the drain that the waste pipe empties into and the inside of the room, stopping any fou...
In its simplest form, the waste trap is just a U-shaped piece of pipe with an inlet and an outlet and this is how the waste trap appeared for many years after its inception, however over the years the design has been refined to suit more specific situations. The most common of these types are as follows:
Due to the very nature of the waste trap and the job it performs and also what generally gets disposed of down sinks and into appliance wastes, it’s inevitable that over time debris will collect and you will find that flow is restricted due to this and sometimes blockages can even form. When this happens, to prevent any potential flooding you must ...
The short answer to this question is yes, you do have to have a waste trap on any appliance or fixture that empties water into a drainage system. As we have stated, this is to prevent the foul smelling gasses that are emitted from sewage waste exiting through the drainage point and filling the room. This rule is stipulated in Approved Document H of...
Sometimes, when removing a plug from the basin or bath, a gurgling sound can be heard coming from other pipework close by. This “gurgling” phenomenon is explained in our gurgling pipes projectand the problem is easily overcome. The noise is made because the speed with which the waste water is escaping forms a partial vacuum behind it which sucks wa...
A drainage gully, also known as a gully trap or a stormwater gully, is a component of a drainage system used to collect surface water runoff. It is a channel or inlet at ground level that collects and removes surface water, such as rainwater or runoff, from an area.
Water flows down through the body of the gully, out through a higher outlet, which leaves a body of water below the outlet level to prevent any smells from penetrating through. This video discusses the two main types of gully: P Trap Gully. We have two types of P Traps available, one with a 90 degree outlet and one with a 45 degree outlet. Both ...
When a rat runs the gauntlet to the chicken coop, it is on the look-out for ground and avian predators. This is where position comes in to its own, if we can negate the rat from having to expose itself to predators and feed in a safe environment, our success grows exponentially.
A Gully Trap is a drainage pipe extension in the form of a basin that allows waste water to safely enter the sewage system with a seal that traps dangerous gases and prevents the gases from escaping. Gully traps can best be thought of as the bridge between escaping water from the home and the barrier that allows this waste to connect to the ...
