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?

    So draining against gravity is bad. The electric outlet cover should be screwed into place and if that’s a dryer vent the lint will collect and clog creating a fire hazard. In sorry, but, that whole setup is janky.

    Edit: oh jeeze you have a whole outlet hanging out too.

    Edit: I saw your other picture, I too am no plumber, but, none of that looks right
