    If you are hard plumbing, you could do that....however, I don't see a need. Use a T. Instead of all the water turning a 90 degree turn downwards, you have a PVC "T" that is turned on it's side. Normally, a T is to have water drop down and then turn in two different directions. Using a T like this on it's side means water comes in the side, water drops down through gravity, and the other side of the T points to the sky and allows the air bubbles to just leave.

    Well, thnks a lot to respond to my request!
    But I must say am still a bit confused though. Its mainly on how and where to place the T from the bulkheads of the drain. The pict I Showed is how we use it at the moment. The Middle part of the 'T' is placed through the bulkhead and the other two one faces the sky and the other one 'indirectly down'. ooups I hope am not asking too much:-[
