FAQs

What is the flow rate of this shower tray waste?

The Flode Shower Tray Waste features an impressive flow rate of 33.6 liters per minute, thanks to its fast-flow design and vented dome cover.

Will this waste fit my shower tray?

This waste is designed to fit all standard UK shower trays that have a 90mm waste hole. Please measure your tray's waste hole to confirm compatibility.

What size is the outlet pipe connection?

The outlet thread on this waste unit is 40mm. An offset elbow is included for connection flexibility.

How do I clean the antique brass finish?

To maintain the antique brass finish, use only a soft, damp cloth. Avoid all abrasive cleaners and harsh chemicals, which can damage the surface.

Does this waste unit prevent odors?

While the fast-flow design helps, this specific model description does not explicitly mention an integrated anti-odor trap. Ensure your connected plumbing system addresses odor prevention if needed.

Is the offset elbow essential for installation?

The offset elbow is included to provide flexibility in connecting the waste unit to your plumbing. While often helpful, its necessity depends on your specific plumbing layout.

What material is the waste unit made from?

The main body of the waste unit is constructed from durable polypropylene, with a finished dome cover in antique brass.

Troubleshooting

Slow drainage or standing water

Ensure the vented dome cover is clear of debris. Check for any blockages further down the waste pipe. Verify the 90mm waste hole is not obstructed.

Leak from the waste unit

Check that the waste unit is properly seated in the shower tray and that sealant has been applied correctly and cured. Ensure the connections to the offset elbow and the waste pipe are secure.

Dome cover difficult to remove or reattach

Ensure there is no debris trapped in the threads. Clean the threads on both the dome and the waste body. Do not overtighten when reattaching.

Inconsistent finish on the dome cover

This is unlikely for a new product. If the finish appears uneven, contact the retailer or manufacturer. For existing units, ensure you are cleaning with non-abrasive materials.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Dome: For the antique brass-finished dome, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
  • Regular Maintenance: Periodically unscrew the dome cover to clean any hair or debris that may accumulate around the trap. This will help maintain optimal flow rate.
  • Checking Seals: Regularly inspect the seals around the waste unit to ensure there are no leaks.
