Firstly the property is on a combined drainage system, otherwise this would clearly be not allowed
I have very limited space on the house wall, due to the location of a window and a garden wall, fitting both pipes into this space will be tight. Additionally I will likely need to introduce a bend into the soil stack (below the window), due to lack of underground space for both a rest bend (for soil stack) and a gully (for down pipe).
So is there a trap I can fit to a soil stack that allows a down pipe to be connected above the height of the garden wall?
There is a dormer window above the level of the gutter, hence the need for the trap.
(Before anyone ask, yes building control is going to inspect the work.)
