  • I’ve inherited a lot of odd stuff in the new home - has anyone got a more elegant solution to this?
    It’s where the sump pump drains into the main waste.
    I’m replacing the pipe as it had split in 5 places and my bodge isn’t going to hold for the next flood.

  • This looks well weird. Is it sealed at the top, because there's no u-bend and is basically a direct access to the foul water drain below?

    It works fine but doesn’t look great. As I’m replacing the pipe anyway thought I’d try and do something better.
    Something like the connector in the picture should work but there’s nothing for it to screw into.
