Ok, I've made an attempt creating a PPP trap primer and I have uploaded it to the download labrary. It has connection points but when I insert it into my model the connectors don't appear to work. Maybe somebody can take a look at it and improve on it. If you do please let me know so that I can either download the fixed family or let me know what I need to do to fix this family. Thanks!

I only changed Settings > Family Category & Parameters > Pipe Fittings.  Make sure you have some pipe fittings loaded into your model.  Choose the correct offset ex. if you set the primer at 2'-0" then draw your pipe at 2'-0" offset or below.  When you try to connect the pipe to the primer use Connector 1 Domestic Cold Water (refer to jpeg) The 2nd pic shows your primer connected.

The family works but you need to reverse the connector, so both of them are out.

You may need to place the trap primer first before the pipes. or you need to split the pipe and connected to the trap primer.
