Traps FAQs

What is a toilet trap?

A toilet trap is the curved section of the toilet’s waste outlet that holds water to block sewer gases and guide waste into the drainage system. It’s essential for hygiene, odour prevention, and proper plumbing functionality in every bathroom.

What are the two types of toilet traps?

The two main toilet trap types are P-traps and S-traps. P-traps connect horizontally into a wall waste outlet, while S-traps curve downward into the floor waste system. Each type is used depending on the existing plumbing setup.

Which is better, a P-trap or an S-trap toilet?

Neither trap is universally better, and each serves a different drainage configuration. P-traps are ideal for modern wall-outlet plumbing, while S-traps are better for homes with floor outlets. Choosing the correct trap ensures proper flow, fewer installation issues, and long-term stability.

Can you convert a P-trap toilet to an S-trap?

Yes, you can convert a P-trap toilet to an S-trap using a universal S-trap converter. These adjustable connectors extend the set-out range and redirect the waste path to the floor outlet, making conversions simple during renovations or replacements.
