froggy 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2010 ya i was reading her question not too sure i understand though..i just checked my toilet dun have... the air con tube goes st8 to the floor trap. so far no prob.... hi 15may I was just going to ask you also. Actually there were 2 questions - 1. air con water drainage, that one is more a matter of aesthetics vs maintenance. But the more "serious" one is about the water flow in toilet. When I tried with mine, found that water all flow into the outside floor trap, ie that is the lowest point. So if construct shower kerb without a hole, water will pond on the area between the 2 traps. so the alternative is to do kerb with a hole, then water can flow out right? So your kerb with hole or without? If you see my blog, you will notice my kerbs got a hole at the bottom, but Bearlyn's doesn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think depends on how the tiles are aligned. The issue is not whether there is one or two floor traps - for eg, if water in shower area flows into the inside floor trap, there will not be any issue with ponding. On the other hand, mine is built with the outside trap as the lowest point, that's why my concern. At first I thought HDB did not lay my tiles properly, but yesterday I saw my neighbour's also the same. Neighbour on the other side also did not have hole in the kerb, but that's bc she did overlay for her toilet tiles, so her tiler corrected the flow issue. Anyway will go down tomorrow again to double check water flow before deciding next move Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the lowest point is near the outside floor trap as wat froggy says,after bathing, water does pond there but after a while the water disperse into the water trap that the contractor made for us.dun think its a serious problem.. but froggy kerb with hole will do the trick.. but be careful then when u bathe, lots of water will come out from that hole.. might flood the outside area.
