No. That seems like a weird need.Reach4, do you know of any 1.5" PVC tee's that are female threaded on the two continuous sides and male threaded on the 3rd tee side? Searching all the different sites to find one.

I doubt that a p-trap is the right thing for here. Find out where that pipe goes.Also, whats the correct way to hook up to the stub out with a p trap?
That photo you just posted would not make me comfortable, but maybe it is a illusion.I feel pretty comfortable putting in a p-trap for safety just in case and letting it drain from there. Thoughts?

My thought is that the way your T&P valve is plumbed is pretty weird, and I would be surprised if it's compliant with your plumbing code.Thoughts?

The T&P line has requirements. You should know where that goes.Dang, you know better than me, which part? I just posted a picture of the T&P line.
For the softener, hook it up with no p-trap and no air gap, if you were not planning to plant stuff at that output; be happy. Glue a PVC fitting of your choice to that pipe. If you want to plant stuff under that softener drain, re-plumb to run the softener drain line to a sink tailpiece or a washing machine standpipe, and don't use the pipe they provided.
For the water heater, clean that up properly. I don't want to try to define how to make that right, but what you have is very much not right.
Except Texas is on the IPC, per up.codes.
Any harm with just running it straight down with a new piece of threaded copper and putting a bucket with a water sensor?? I don't want to re use the in wall drain as it's lower diameter than the valve connection!!Except Texas is on the IPC, per up.codes.
That loop on the T&P discharge with the braided lines and the corrugated copper portion is very . . . special.

Except Austin and Houston.Except Texas is on the IPC, per up.codes.
I'm city of Leander. I'll try to find it. I would air gap the pan/bucket, just want to buy some time if my sensor alerts meExcept Austin and Houston.
Regarding going outside, not in places that get cold.
This is awkward, but...
