Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this washer, first ensure the water supply is cut off and the bath is completely drained. Unscrew the existing waste fitting and remove the old, degraded washer. Inspect the threads on your waste system to confirm they are standard 1.1/2 inch BSP. Clean any debris or mineral deposits from the threading before sliding the new washer into position. Hand-tighten the waste assembly, ensuring the washer sits flush to prevent pinching. For maintenance, avoid using harsh chemical drain cleaners that may corrode the washer material over time; instead, use periodic manual cleaning to remove hair or soap scum buildup.
