FAQs

What material is the basin waste made from?

The basin waste is manufactured from high-quality materials with a chrome finish, and features a brass plug and ball chain.

Is this basin waste suitable for all types of basins?

It is designed for ceramic bathroom basins and is particularly suited for use with the Balterley range of ceramic bathroom basins.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching the surface. Always dry thoroughly.

What is the function of the ball chain?

The ball chain is attached to the brass plug. It allows you to easily lift the plug to drain the basin water and is also used to keep the plug attached to the waste when not in use.

Can I replace just the plug or chain if they break?

While the plug and chain are integral parts, individual components like the plug or chain can often be replaced if they are standard sizes. However, it is recommended to check availability from the manufacturer or a plumbing supplier.

Does this basin waste come with a trap?

This product is a basin waste with a plug and chain, and typically does not include the basin trap. The trap is a separate plumbing component.

Troubleshooting

Waste is leaking from the basin underside.

Ensure the rubber washer and retaining nut are tightened securely. Check the washer for any damage or wear and replace if necessary.

Plug does not seal effectively.

Clean the plug and the inside of the waste outlet to remove any debris. Check the rubber seal on the plug for wear and replace if damaged.

Chrome finish appears dull or tarnished.

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. Dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth.

Ball chain is stiff or difficult to operate.

Gently clean the chain links and the plug mechanism. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied if necessary, avoiding petroleum-based lubricants.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This basin waste is designed to be installed into the drain hole of a compatible ceramic bathroom basin. It typically involves fitting the waste body from underneath the basin, securing it with a rubber washer and a retaining nut. The plug and chain assembly then connects to the top of the waste. Professional installation is recommended if you are not familiar with plumbing.

Compatibility: Suitable for use with ceramic bathroom basins, particularly those within the Balterley range. Ensure your basin has a standard size drain opening for this waste.

Care: To maintain the chrome finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. Periodically check the rubber seal around the plug for wear and tear, and clean the ball chain to prevent any build-up.
