Thanks, but as much as I try, I haven't a clue what that is, or could possibly be? Is there another name?
no bends or turns between p trap and sanitary tee in wall. If you do put bends you take the risk of improper venting.
The pipes under my kitchen sink have a lot of bends after the P trap. All copper fittings installed by the plumber when the house was built in 1958.
Having a bend after the p-trap is not equivalent to having a s-trap. A bend in the horizontal plane should not cause problems with venting or siphoning of the trap.
That is correct. As long as you keep the bend within the horizontal plane at 1/4"/ft pitch not exceeding the developed length allowed under code you are okay.
don't see the need to make bends after the p trap. Install P trap first on sanitary tee with a short length of pipe. Then from there connect from trap to sink strainer and you can't go wrong.
I'm trying to think of a case where you would need bends between the trap and sanitary tee but I can't.
Problem is getting from the p-trap to the tail piece - sideways distance that is 1 foot', and therefore longer than the distance the p-trap can reach when swiveled.

This is awkward, but...
