Bristan Basin Bottle Trap - Chrome - Brass - 57mm x 260mm

The trap is constructed from durable brass with a chrome-plated finish.

Yes, it is manufactured to BS EN 248 standards.

The dimensions are approximately 6 cm in width and 26 cm in length.

It is recommended to clean the chrome finish regularly with a soft cloth. Periodically check and clean the trap itself if you notice slow draining or odors.

Basic DIY installation is possible if you have experience with plumbing. However, if you are unsure, professional installation is recommended to ensure a proper seal and avoid leaks.

A bottle trap prevents foul-smelling sewer gases from entering your bathroom by maintaining a water seal.

It is designed to fit standard basin waste outlets, but you should verify the dimensions (6cm x 26cm) and connection types against your specific basin and plumbing setup.

Check that all seals are correctly positioned and undamaged. Gently tighten fittings further, ensuring not to overtighten. If leaks persist, consider replacing seals.

The bottle trap may be partially blocked. Unscrew the lower part of the trap to clean out any debris. Reassemble and test drainage.

Ensure the trap has sufficient water. If the water seal has evaporated (e.g., during prolonged non-use), run water to refill the trap. Check for any cracks in the trap that might compromise the seal.

Ensure you have the correct tools and that all components are aligned properly. Refer to the specific installation manual if provided, or consult a professional plumber.
