Product Information

Full details

The Flode Top-Fix Slotted Basin Waste is an ideal solution for DIY enthusiasts and professional plumbers looking for an efficient way to install bathroom waste systems in confined spaces. Its primary benefit is the innovative top-fix installation technology, which eliminates the need to reach underneath the sink; however, users should ensure their basin thickness meets the minimum 40mm requirement for slotted compatibility before purchase.

FAQs

Does this waste fit all basins?

It fits standard UK basins with an overflow. Please ensure your basin has an overflow and meets the 40mm thickness requirement for slotted models.

Do I need silicone sealant?

No, the unit features a compression rubber seal, making it a clean, dry installation.

Can this be used on a basin without an overflow?

No, this is a slotted basin waste, which is specifically for basins that have an overflow connection.

How do I clean the matt black finish?

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the finish.

Is the installation difficult for a beginner?

The top-fix design is specifically intended for easy DIY installation without needing access underneath the sink.

What is the warranty period?

The product includes a 2-year manufacturer guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Water leaking around the waste flange

Ensure the top-fix bolt is tightened sufficiently to fully compress the rubber seal against the basin.

Push-button mechanism feels stiff

Clean the top of the waste and remove any hair or soap residue trapped in the mechanism.

Water draining slowly

Check the overflow slot for blockages and ensure the click-clack cap is fully extending when in the open position.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Installation is significantly faster due to top-access design
  • No messy sealant required for a watertight fit
  • Modern matt black finish matches contemporary tapware
  • Compatible with standard UK basin configurations
  • Simple push-button mechanism is easy to operate

Cons

  • Requires a minimum basin thickness of 40mm for slotted models
  • Not suitable for basins without an overflow
  • Matt black finish may require careful cleaning to prevent surface scratching

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, verify that your basin includes an overflow hole, as this unit is strictly for slotted configurations. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris. To install, insert the waste body into the basin hole from above, then use the provided mechanism to tighten the top-fix bolt until the internal rubber seal fully compresses against the basin floor. Avoid using abrasive cleaning chemicals or scouring pads on the matt black finish; instead, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soapy water to maintain the aesthetic. Regularly check that the push-button mechanism remains free of hair or debris buildup to ensure smooth operation.
