A bottle trap, also known as an odor trap, prevents unpleasant sewer gases from escaping the drain and entering your bathroom by maintaining a water seal.
It is designed to fit most standard wash basins with a 1 1/4 inch basin connection and a DN 32mm (1 1/4 inch) drain pipe, adhering to universal plumbing standards.
You can easily clean it by unscrewing the bottle section, removing any collected debris, rinsing it, and then reassembling it. Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and hygiene.
Typically, basic plumbing tools such as pliers or a pipe wrench may be needed for tightening fittings, along with a bucket to catch residual water and a soft cloth.
It is recommended to clean the bottle trap every 3-6 months, or more frequently if you notice slow draining or any odors. Quick visual checks for debris can also be done periodically.
While durable, the brushed brass finish can be scratched by abrasive materials. It's best to use soft cloths for cleaning and avoid harsh scrubbing.
Please refer to the manufacturer's warranty information for specific details on the warranty period and coverage.
Check the bottle trap for blockages. Unscrew the bottle, remove any debris, clean, and reassemble.
Ensure all fittings are securely tightened. Check that seals and washers are correctly seated and undamaged. Re-tighten connections gently.
Verify that the bottle trap contains water, creating a proper water seal. If the trap is dry, run water down the sink. Check for any cracks or improper seals that might allow gases to escape.
Clean the finish with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads. If necessary, use a cleaner specifically designed for brushed brass finishes.
Compatibility:

Care:
To maintain the brushed brass finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. For internal cleaning, unscrew the bottle trap, empty any debris, rinse with water, and reassemble.
