Unless you've got Ikea units! They do their plumbing etc differently on the continent so they don't have a void at the back of the unit - absolute pain to fit unless you chase in the plumbing, leave tails, fit the units and then go back and refit the pipework!royaloakcarpentry wrote:Service voids are there for a reason............to allow for unit to be scribed to the wall, plumbing and electrics etc.
This can't be right??

Re: This can't be right??
With the outlet pipe going out UNDER the socket one can only assume the plumbing was done first!
Otherwise it could have been a 'shocking' experience for the plumber not knowing which way the cables to that socket were running.
Still breached the 'safe zone' though, which is bad practise.
