FAQs

What makes the Top Fix installation unique?

The patented Top Fix system allows you to install and secure the bath waste and overflow entirely from the top side of the bath, eliminating the need to access the often cramped and difficult space underneath.

Is this bath waste suitable for any type of bath?

It is designed for standard UK baths that feature the necessary pre-drilled holes for a bath waste and an overflow outlet. Compatibility with non-standard or custom baths should be verified.

How do I clean the matt black finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth for regular cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners and harsh chemicals that can damage the finish. A mild soap and water solution can be used for tougher grime.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Top Fix Bath Waste with Overflow comes with a 2-year manufacturer's guarantee.

Does the overflow feature have a specific function beyond safety?

Yes, the integrated overflow works in tandem with the main waste to ensure efficient and smooth drainage of water from the bath.

Can I replace my old bath waste with this unit?

Yes, this unit is ideal for replacements, especially if you are finding it difficult to access the underside of your bath for traditional waste installations.

What are the main dimensions of the product?

The dimensions are Height: 22 cm, Width: 18 cm, and Depth: 7.5 cm.

Troubleshooting

Waste is not draining efficiently

Check the waste trap for any blockages (hair, soap scum). Ensure the overflow holes are clear and the main waste plunger/plug is fully open.

Overflow is not working or leaking

Ensure the overflow pipe is correctly connected and not kinked. Check that the overflow cover plate is securely attached and the seal is intact. If leakage persists, re-check the seal around the overflow pipe connection.

Matt black finish is discolored or damaged

Cease using abrasive cleaners immediately. Try cleaning with a mild soap and water solution and a soft cloth. For minor damage, consult manufacturer guidelines for touch-up options if available.

Difficulty securing the waste from above

Ensure you are using the correct tools as per the installation manual. Double-check that all components are correctly aligned before attempting to tighten. Do not overtighten.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
