Plumbing problem
Feb 25th, 2018, 6:49pm  
Fitting a new bath.  The waste outlet is too low to allow a run to the waste pipe.  Would a shallow bath trap or an extended body bath trap help by creating a run.  Otherwise it looks like I will have to bore the outside wall to make a lower waste pipe .

If the pipe is higher than the base of the bath water will not completely drain.

Two solutions, raise the bath or drill a new hole.
