Full details

FAQs

What is a slotted pop-up basin waste?

A slotted pop-up basin waste is designed for sinks or basins that have an overflow hole. The 'slot' allows water to drain from the overflow into the waste pipe, preventing the basin from flooding. The 'pop-up' feature allows you to easily open and close the drain by pressing the top.

Do I need a basin with an overflow for this waste?

Yes, this is a 'slotted' basin waste, meaning it is specifically designed to be used with basins that have an overflow hole. If your basin does not have an overflow, you would need a 'slotted' version.

How easy is it to install?

The installation is designed to be straightforward and requires minimal tools. Typically, you unscrew the old waste, apply sealant, insert the new waste, and reassemble from underneath.

What material is the waste made from?

The cover is made from ceramic, and the internal tube is made from brass, ensuring durability and a quality finish.

What is the warranty period?

This AURORA Slotted Pop Up Basin Waste comes with a 2-year guarantee.

How do I clean the gloss white finish?

Clean the gloss white finish using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the surface.

What does 'G 1 1/2 inches' connection size mean?

This refers to the standard thread size for plumbing connections in the UK and many other regions. It means the waste is designed to connect to standard G 1 1/2 inch plumbing fittings.

Troubleshooting

Waste does not seal properly

Ensure a sufficient bead of silicone sealant was used during installation. Check if the pop-up mechanism is obstructed or not seating correctly. Clean any debris from the sealing surfaces.

Water drains too slowly

Check the trap and waste pipe connected to the basin waste for blockages. Ensure the pop-up stopper is fully open.

Pop-up mechanism is stiff or stuck

Remove the waste and clean the internal components. Check for any foreign objects or buildup. Lubricate moving parts if necessary with a silicone-based lubricant.

Leaking around the base of the waste

The silicone sealant may not have been applied correctly or is insufficient. Dismantle, clean, reapply a fresh bead of silicone sealant, and reassemble securely.
