Bottle Traps in Australia

Box & Bottle Traps FAQs

What is the point of a bottle trap?

A bottle trap creates a water seal beneath a basin to prevent sewer odours from entering the room. Also, the compact shape is ideal for exposed plumbing, offering both functional drainage and a clean, stylish finish in modern bathrooms.

Which is better, a P-trap or a bottle trap?

A P-trap typically handles higher water volume and is preferred for compliance in many regions, while a bottle trap is chosen for its compact size and aesthetic appeal under basins. The best choice depends on local regulations, available space and the desired visual result.

Do bottle traps meet the code?

Yes, bottle traps can meet plumbing code when certified to local standards and used in appropriate applications, such as bathroom basins rather than high-flow fixtures. Always confirm compliance requirements in your region, as regulations differ between states and building types.

Does a bottle trap stop smelling?

Yes. A bottle trap prevents bad odours by maintaining a water seal that blocks gases from the drainage system. However, it must be installed correctly and cleaned periodically, as debris buildup or evaporation can weaken the seal and reduce odour protection.
