What is Steelex upvc P-Trap 3″?

A UPVC P-trap, People also know as a PVC P-trap, is a plumbing component we use to prevent sewer gases from entering buildings while allowing wastewater to flow freely. We use them in sink, shower, and bathtub drains.

How a PVC P-Trap works?

Material: UPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) or PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) is a type of plastic that’s resistant to corrosion and chemical damage. This makes it suitable for use in plumbing applications.

Shape:
The P-trap is named for its shape, which resembles the letter “P” when we view from sideways. It has a curved section followed by a straight section.

Function:
The curved section of the P-trap holds water, creating a water seal that prevents sewer gases from rising back into the building through the drain.
The trapped water also acts as a barrier to prevent pests and insects from entering the building through the drain.

Installation:
We install P-traps beneath sinks, showers, and other fixtures where wastewater flows out. Plumbers connect them to the drain pipe and the fixture’s outlet pipe.

Maintenance:
P-traps need occasional cleaning to prevent clogs and maintain proper drainage. This involves removing the trap, clearing any debris or buildup, and reattaching it securely.

Sizes:
P-traps come in various sizes 2″ | 3″ | 4″.

Ventilation:
Proper ventilation of the plumbing system is essential to prevent air pressure issues that can affect the water seal in the P-trap.
Plumbers also install Vent pipes to allow air to enter the system and equalize pressure.
