Is my sink trap too high?
Home Improvement Asked by Lar on March 22, 2021
Hello I renovated my kitchen and had plumbing moved and replaced. Didn’t really think about the height of the waste pipe before cabinets sink and countertop went in. With new sink and disposal installed, I’m afraid my p-trap is too high in order to line up with the waste drain. This is what I did in the attached picture. Is anything wrong with my setup?
Thanks everyone for your responses so far. I’ve attached a slightly better pic which shows where the waste pipe is. I will get dimensions once I get back tonight. Nothing is glued yet so I can’t say it’s leaking. I was hoping I could get some advice before it gets glued.

With the new photo your trap appears to be perfect. I find that traps have a fairly large operating range the important thing is that they hold water and yours will hold enough water to prevent sewer gas from backing up into the home. If you are having any issues let us know but with the air admittance valve and your setup I don’t see any problems.
