FAQs
What is a slotted basin waste?
A slotted basin waste is designed for basins that have an overflow hole. The 'slot' allows water to drain away if the basin is overfilled, preventing spills.
Can I use this waste with a basin without an overflow?
No, this is a slotted waste and is specifically designed for basins with an overflow. You would need an unslotted (or universal) waste for basins without an overflow.
How do I clean the brushed brass finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners and always dry the finish afterwards to prevent water spots.
What does the 5-year parts guarantee cover?
The guarantee typically covers manufacturing defects in the parts. It's advisable to check the specific terms and conditions provided with the product for full details.
Does this come with a basin trap?
The product description states it is 'complete with fittings', which usually implies the waste mechanism and associated parts for installation into the basin. A separate basin trap may be required depending on your plumbing setup.
How do I operate the clicker mechanism?
Push down on the top of the waste to close it. Push down again to release and open the waste, allowing water to drain.
Troubleshooting
Waste is leaking
Ensure all seals are correctly seated and tightened. Check the integrity of the basin's waste hole and the trap connection.
Clicker mechanism is stiff or not working properly
Remove the waste and clean any debris from the mechanism. Lubricate lightly if necessary, following manufacturer guidelines.
Water drains too slowly
Check the basin trap for blockages. Ensure the waste is fully open and not obstructed.
Finish is discolored
Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. If the issue persists, consult the product guarantee.
