AVOID

 DIRECT FALL 

Where the point of discharge into the soil stack is significantly 
lower than the base of the unit, a vacuum relief valve may need 
to be fitted at the highest point in the pipe run in order to avoid 
siphonage of the water seal.

AVOID 

DIAGONAL “UPHILL” PIPE RUNS 

All discharge pipe work from the unit should run either directly  
vertical upwards from it or in a horizontal plane (with a small 
gravity flow) to the point of discharge. Pipe work should not be 
installed with diagonal upward slope from the unit to the point 
of discharge.
