On the new waste and overflow drain that I am installing there are 3 possible configurations (direct, indirect down, and indirect rear). I am installing new dwv lines to the main stack so I can place the trap below in any location (open basement) so it is possible for me to use either the 'direct' or the 'indirect down' configuration.
Is there one that performs better than the other? It would seem to me that the 'direct' would be preferable as the water is going directly down to the trap and out as opposed to horizontal and then down to the trap.
Thanks in advance for all your help and advice!
