FAQs
What is the main purpose of a bottle trap?
A bottle trap's main purpose is to create a water seal that prevents foul odors from the drainage system from entering the living space.
What pipe size does this bottle trap fit?
This bottle trap is designed for 1¼" (32mm) waste pipes.
Can I install this trap myself?
Yes, this bottle trap is designed for easy hand-installation and does not require special tools.
How do I clean the bottle trap?
The trap features a removable bowl that can be unscrewed by hand for easy cleaning. Use mild detergent and a soft brush.
What types of pipes is it compatible with?
It is compatible with plastic, copper, and lead waste pipes using either push-fit or solvent weld connections.
What is the water seal depth?
The water seal depth is 75mm.
Can this be used in a kitchen?
While it can be used for drainage, it is primarily designed for bathroom sinks, bidets, and urinals. It may not be suitable for kitchen sinks, especially those with food waste disposers, due to potential grease build-up or higher flow rates.
Troubleshooting
Trap is leaking
Check that all compression nuts are hand-tight. Ensure rubber washers are correctly seated and not damaged. Verify the pipe connection is secure.
Foul odors persist
Ensure the water seal has not evaporated (run water down the drain). Check that the trap is correctly installed and that the pipework does not have unintended air gaps. Clean the removable bowl.
Water is draining slowly
The trap may be partially blocked. Unscrew and clean the removable bowl. Check for any obstructions in the connected waste pipe.
Cannot hand-tighten connection
Ensure you are using the correct 32mm fitting. Check for cross-threading or damaged threads on the pipe or trap.
