Product Information

Full details

This Flomasta Unslotted Waste is designed for bath applications, offering a reliable and traditional method for controlling water flow. It's ideal for homeowners seeking a straightforward, functional waste system. While it provides a secure seal with its plug and chain, it is unslotted, meaning it's not suitable for baths requiring an overflow connection.

FAQs

Is this waste suitable for baths with an overflow?

No, this is an 'unslotted' waste, meaning it does not have a connection for an overflow. It is only suitable for baths without an overflow feature.

What material is the waste made from?

The waste is made from high-quality polypropylene (PP).

What size is the outlet thread?

The outlet thread is a standard 1 1/2 inch size.

How do I operate the plug?

You simply push the plug into the waste opening to seal it and pull the attached chain to release it.

Does this waste come with a bath trap?

No, this product is just the waste fitting. A separate bath trap is required for installation and is not included.

How should I clean the chrome effect finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch or damage the finish.

Troubleshooting

Waste is leaking around the outlet.

Ensure the waste is securely screwed onto the bath trap. Check the seal between the trap and the bath. Reapply plumber's tape or sealant to the threads if necessary.

Plug does not create a watertight seal.

Clean the plug and the inside of the waste opening to remove any debris. Check the plug for damage or wear. Ensure the chain is not preventing the plug from seating correctly.

Water drains slowly.

This waste is not designed to control drainage flow rate. Slow drainage may indicate a blockage in the bath trap or waste pipe. Clean the trap and pipework.
