FAQs

Is this waste suitable for a basin without an overflow?

No, this is a slotted basin waste, meaning it is designed specifically for basins that have an overflow hole. For basins without an overflow, you would need an unslotted waste.

What material is the main body of the waste made from?

The main body of the waste is manufactured from high-quality, chrome-plated solid brass.

How do I activate the click-clack function?

To close the waste, push down on the mushroom head until it clicks and stays down, sealing the drain. To open it, push down again until it clicks and pops up, allowing water to drain.

What is the warranty period for this product?

This basin waste comes with a 2-year guarantee from the manufacturer.

How tall is the waste unit?

The height of the waste unit is approximately 8.85 inches (22.5 cm).

Can I use this waste with any type of basin trap?

It is designed to work with standard UK basin plumbing fittings, including common P-traps and bottle traps, typically accepting a 1.25-inch connection.

How should I clean the ceramic mushroom head?

Clean the ceramic mushroom head with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents to maintain its finish and integrity.

Troubleshooting

Waste does not seal properly

Check if there is any debris caught around the rubber seal at the bottom of the waste or on the seating inside the basin. Ensure the click-clack mechanism is correctly assembled and the plunger is fully extended when open and fully depressed when closed.

Water drains too slowly

Inspect the waste pipework connected to the trap for any blockages. Ensure the basin overflow is not obstructed, as this can affect drainage. Clean any hair or soap scum buildup from the waste mechanism.

The click-clack mechanism is stiff or won't pop up/down

The mechanism may require lubrication or cleaning. Try flushing with warm water and a mild detergent. Ensure no internal parts are bent or damaged. Disassemble and reassemble carefully.

Leaking from under the basin

Ensure the securing nut and washers underneath the basin are tightened sufficiently. Check that the washers are correctly seated and not damaged. Re-seal with plumber's putty or silicone if necessary.
