Full details
This SopimusZ Bathroom Sink Drain Kit is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking for a durable and versatile solution to replace or upgrade their bathroom sink plumbing. Its key benefit lies in its robust construction and adaptable drainage options, preventing odors and clogs. A potential caveat is its specific compatibility with 1-1/4" or 1-1/2" PVC drainage pipes and flush hole diameters between 1.26 inch and 1.97 inch (32mm-50mm), requiring users to verify measurements before purchase. Key features include high-quality brass and stainless steel components, a flexible and extendable drain hose, a double odor and insect-resistant design, and an integrated filter screw.

FAQs
What size PVC pipes is this drain kit compatible with?
This kit is designed for 1-1/4 inch or 1-1/2 inch PVC drainage pipes.
How do I measure the sink's flush hole diameter?
Measure the diameter of the opening in the sink where the drain assembly is installed. This kit fits flush holes between 1.26 inches and 1.97 inches (32mm-50mm).
Do I need special tools to install this drain kit?
No, this drain kit is designed for tool-free installation and can be assembled and tightened by hand.
How does the odor-resistant feature work?
The drain features a visible odor-resistant core that automatically closes when there is no water flow, acting as a seal to block sewer gases and insects.
How often should I clean the filter screw?
It is recommended to clean the filter screw regularly, especially in households with long hair or pets, to prevent clogs. Weekly or bi-weekly checks are advisable.
Can this drain kit be used with sinks that have an overflow?
Yes, the kit includes washers suitable for use with sinks that have an overflow.
What is the maximum length the flexible drain hose can extend?
The flexible drainage hose has an extendable length that can reach from 45cm up to 96.5cm.
Troubleshooting
Sink does not drain properly.
Check the filter screw for blockages and clean it. Ensure the flexible hose is not kinked or excessively bent. Verify the drain hose is fully extended or connected correctly to the waste pipe.
Unpleasant odors from the drain.
Ensure the odor-resistant core is functioning correctly. Check that the flexible hose has a proper water seal (P-trap effect) and that all connections are secure. Some odors can be persistent and may require a thorough cleaning of the drainpipe itself.
Water is leaking from connections.
Hand-tighten all threaded connections. If leaks persist, ensure rubber washers are correctly seated and not damaged. Check if the flush hole diameter is within the specified range for a proper seal.
Pop-up stopper is difficult to operate.
Ensure the pop-up mechanism is clean and free of debris. Check that the linkage (if applicable, though this model emphasizes tool-free) is properly aligned. The main drain screw itself should move freely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility Check:
Before installation, verify that your sink's flush hole diameter is between 1.26 inches and 1.97 inches (32mm-50mm). Ensure your existing or intended PVC drainage pipe is either 1-1/4" or 1-1/2" in diameter.
Installation Steps (Tool-Free):
- Prepare the Sink: Ensure the sink is clean and free of debris. Remove the old drain assembly if present.
- Assemble the Drain Body: Insert the pop-up drain screw through the sink's flush hole, ensuring any overflow washers are correctly positioned.
- Attach the Siphon and Hose: Connect the flexible siphon water tank to the drain body and attach the extendable drainage hose. Hand-tighten all connections.
- Connect to Waste Pipe: Connect the other end of the drainage hose to your bathroom's waste pipe. Adjust the hose length as needed.
- Test for Leaks: Run water into the sink and check all connections for leaks. Gently tighten any dripping connections by hand if necessary.
Care Instructions:
- Periodically remove and clean the filter screw to remove accumulated hair and debris. This can usually be done by hand.
- Clean the exterior of the drain components with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the finish.
