Contractor installed this convoluted p-trap + elbow for the washer, and I’m not sure if it’s up to code. Can you confirm and more importantly explain why or why not it’s compliant?

    Not a plumber but I am an inspector. This will not pass in Chicago or Illinois.

    No trap will form.

      Yea. Looks like they created a S trap. It’s just gonna siphon and then let gasses back into the washed clothes.
