Is there a minimum length requirement for a single bowl kitchen sink tail piece?
The trap arm center is 25 inches above the floor. The finished height of the counter top is about 36 inches above the floor. There was a seven inch deep sink in place previously. With that sink the tail piece was already pretty short.
I was planning to change to an 8 inch deep sink. Obviously a short tail piece is going to be even shorter. Are there issues with this or if it fits it's OK?
Another issue is that a horizontal 45 degree and a short extension are required for the sink trap to connect to the trap arm from the wall. If I was going to lower the trap arm I would probably angle it to point towards the sink drain and eliminate the need for the 45. Would that be the right thing to do?
