Regarding the height of the baffled T with respect to the exit from the p-trap, I should say that I was comparing the /tops/ of the pipes. That is, the baffled T is very nearly the same height as the stub from the wall.

It's really not a big deal to lower the stub out of the wall. Maybe an hour of work for a competent plumber. May as well do it right or you'll deal with drain problems.

BTW, it's not entirely clear from your post, but if the top of Tee where the p-trap drains to is above the bottom of your sink, the sink won't drain at all (or will drain only down to the level of the tee.

Thank you for the comments so far.

To clarify, the baffled Tee is below the sinks. For both bowls, the basket strainer connects to a waste arm through a 90. Both waste arms join at a baffled Tee that empties into a P trap. The P trap would connect to the drain stub.

My fear is that the drain may not drain well or that there may be a problem with standing water in the waste arms because the T and the waste arms that it connects are very nearly on the same level as the drain stub.

Regarding just fixing it, because of being in a co-op I would have to go through an approval process to crack the wall and fix the problem. But if there's a definite problem with how it is then the co-op has to come fix it. Does it violate the IPC?

Thank you, again.
