Hey I've got a bath to fit that happens to be on the end of a waste/ soil pipe run. The bath has come with a waste and trap all connected up. However the trap is not anti-vac, will this be a problem anything I can do to over come this?
 
Quite possibly, best to insert a mcalpine antivac tee/ socket which fits inline.
 
i wouldnt worry baths very seldom empty the trap as the shape means there is a lot of run of water which refills the trap even if the initial flow empties it if yoyur not having problems i'd leave it
