Hello forum,
In our new single-family house, we have problems with our floor-level shower on the upper floor.
After some time, we have unpleasant deposits under the shower's trap (clearly things from the toilet - which is connected to the same wastewater pipe - T-connection, i.e. toilet and shower are directly next to each other).
After I pointed this out to the plumbing company, I was told that a certain backflow from the toilet is normal (because of the floor-level shower) and nothing to complain about. It is recommended to clean thoroughly every two months!
I don't have to accept this answer, do I? A test with "substitute liquid" clearly showed that the stuff reaches the shower.
Regards NemoN
P.S. The house was planned and built by a general contractor. We have not signed any liability waivers.
