Product Information

Full details

This McAlpine untrapped gully is designed for plumbing systems in areas where odor escape is not a primary concern, such as garages or gardens. Its key benefit is its durable, corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction and secure clamp ring system for easy cleaning and debris prevention. However, as an untrapped gully, it does not feature a water seal, meaning foul odors can be emitted. It includes a 1½" horizontal outlet, a clamp ring, and a stainless steel cover plate, manufactured from high-quality ABS.

FAQs

What is an untrapped gully?

An untrapped gully collects wastewater but does not have a water seal to prevent sewer gases or odors from escaping into the surrounding area. This makes it suitable for specific outdoor or utility applications.

Can this gully be used indoors?

It is generally not recommended for indoor living spaces due to the potential for foul odors. It is best suited for areas like garages, workshops, or patios where odor is less of a concern.

What type of floors is this gully compatible with?

This gully is designed for installation in both concrete and suspended timber floors.

How do I connect it to my existing pipework?

The gully has a 1½" solvent weld horizontal outlet. A 2" x 1½" socket reducer is included to adapt to 2" pipework if necessary. Ensure connections are made according to plumbing standards.

How often should I clean the gully?

It is advisable to check and clean the gully regularly, especially after heavy use or if debris is visible, to maintain efficient drainage.

What material is the cover made of?

The cover plate is made of high-quality stainless steel.

Does it come with a trap?

No, this is an untrapped gully, meaning it does not have a built-in water seal or trap.

Troubleshooting

Slow drainage

Check the gully body and connected pipes for obstructions or debris. Ensure the outlet pipe is clear and has adequate fall.

Gully cover is loose

Re-seat the clamp ring and cover plate firmly. Ensure all components are correctly aligned and tightened.

Noticeable odors

This is an untrapped gully, so odor escape is expected. For odor control, consider installing an external trap or using a different trapped gully product.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Determine the installation location and ensure it is suitable for a concrete or suspended timber floor.
