The hose pipe went into a hole on the service drain and some was going down

The significant point is that if the waste pipe sits in the water in the drain its possible that some may flow back up the other pipe outlet.

I suspect your problem is related to my post #5. But when using a serviced pitch, I recommend what I suggested in this thread. One thing is for certain. Drainage needs to be as free running as possible,which means smooth bore pipes, sloping and clean.

With regards to your thread I did comment it should stop waste water going back to shower tray, since then I have made my own version of the waste bucket. The one I have done is very similar but has a pipe inside so when the water reaches the level it starts to empty and then syphons alot more out so bucket only about a quarter full, however would depend on final level of pipe, have used on a CL into hedge and worked well

What so everyone can examine Beachball drainage arrangements.? I await the repairers report with eager anticipation. We have been kept in the dark for far too long. Perming any two from three.....
