Have had a 3" 82mm stack pipe fitted to a toilet (+ basin) that never had one before and had a recurrent problem with suction emptying the waste traps, worsened when a shower was fitted.
This has 90% solved the problem, except occasionally - we think when the wind blows from a certain direction.
At present it has no kind of cap on it as the local builders merchant doesn't seem to be able to get hold of one that is 3" diameter.
I was thinking a cap in the form of a dome would be a good idea in that it would presumably avoid the possibility of the wind causing any further problems, but have been unable to find any for 3" pipe, only 4".
The only other option would seem to be an air admittence valve (e.g. Screwfix - FloPlast Push-Fit Air Admittance Valve Grey AF110, which fits 3" and 4") but I see from the Floplast website that these are not recommended for external use.
Any suggestions?
