When installing a shower drainage siphon, there are several different factors to consider. First, you need to decide how high you want the siphon to be. This height depends on the type of pallet you have installed and the height of the drain hole in the shower pan. In most cases, siphons with a height of eight to twenty centimeters work best. However, you may also need a lower siphon if you intend to install the siphon directly on the floor. Secondly, you should consider the quality of the parts used in the construction of the siphon.

Lastly, you need to make sure that the siphon is working properly. If it is not, it may allow sewage odors to re-enter the room. Most siphons work by creating a "water seal" to keep odors from spreading. However, these seals are not permanent and can break down through desiphoning and evaporation.

The most common model is the corrugated pipe siphon. It is similar to a standard tube siphon, but has a flexible corrugation that can be set manually. This type of siphon is ideal for use in most showers, but the corrugated structure means that it can easily collect dirt. The hose itself can also be curved or angled, allowing the siphon to fit into any shower.

Another option is the anti-vacuum valve. This valve helps prevent the siphon from sucking water into the pipes. This valve is attached to the shower drainage system and is connected to the overflow hole to collect the overflow. It can also be connected to the shower element by using a union nut and rubber gasket.
