Product Information

Full details

This SPARES2GO Waste Bottle Trap is designed for plumbing professionals and DIY enthusiasts needing a reliable, adjustable solution for sinks, basins, bidets, and urinals. Its key benefit is the 75mm water seal, which effectively prevents odors from escaping, while its height adjustability and removable bowl offer great convenience. A potential consideration is its construction from polypropylene, which may be less durable than metal alternatives in extremely high-traffic commercial settings.

FAQs

What size pipe does this bottle trap fit?

This bottle trap is designed for 1.25" or 32mm outlet pipes.

How do I clean the bottle trap?

The trap features a removable bowl. Unscrew the bowl, clean it and the trap body with mild detergent and a soft cloth, then reassemble.

What is the purpose of the 75mm water seal?

The 75mm water seal creates a barrier that prevents sewer gases and unpleasant odors from escaping the drain and entering your room.

Can this trap be used in a kitchen sink?

Yes, it is suitable for use in standard kitchen sinks, as well as basins, bidets, and urinals.

Is the height of the trap adjustable?

Yes, the trap is telescopic and height adjustable, allowing for easier fitting into various plumbing setups.

What material is the bottle trap made from?

The bottle trap is made from white polypropylene.

What should I do if I notice a leak?

Check that all connections are securely tightened and that the rubber seals are correctly in place and undamaged. If leaks persist, you may need to replace the seals.

Troubleshooting

Trap is leaking at connections.

Ensure all slip nuts are securely tightened. Check that rubber seals or washers are correctly seated and not damaged. If necessary, replace worn seals.

Water is not draining freely.

Remove the bowl to check for blockages from hair, soap, or debris. Clean the trap and reinstall the bowl. If the blockage is further down the pipe, additional clearing may be required.

Unpleasant odors are present.

Confirm the water seal is sufficient. If the trap has been dry for a long time, run water to refill it. Check for any hairline cracks in the trap body or loose connections that could allow gases to escape.

Trap makes gurgling noises.

This can indicate a venting issue in the plumbing system or a partial blockage. Ensure the waste pipe is properly vented and check for obstructions within the trap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the outlet pipe is clean and ready for connection.
  2. Adjust the telescopic section to achieve the desired height.
  3. Connect the trap to the basin or sink outlet and the waste pipe, using appropriate seals (usually supplied with the trap or existing fittings).
  4. Tighten connections securely but avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the polypropylene.
  5. Run water through the fixture to check for leaks and ensure the water seal is properly formed.

Compatibility:

  • Outlet Size: Designed for 1.25" or 32mm waste pipes.
  • Fixtures: Suitable for basins, bidets, urinals, and standard kitchen sinks.

Care:

  • Cleaning: The removable bowl can be unscrewed for manual cleaning. Use a soft cloth and mild detergent for the exterior and interior surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the polypropylene.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check connections for leaks. If odors return, ensure the water seal is intact by running water; if the trap is dry, check for cracks or blockages.
