Alternatively the relevant recommendations of BS EN 12056 should be followed.
All traps should be accessible and provided with an adequate facility for cleansing, for example, traps that are capable of being readily removed or dismantled. In general a trap which is not an integral part of an appliance should be attached to, and be immediately beneath, its outlet. However, traps that are not connected to the appliance should be as close as possible. There should be no more than one trap on the discharge pipework from any appliance.
