Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The McAlpine Shower Trap Inner Cup (ST90INNERCUP) is designed as a direct replacement part. To install, you will typically need to access the shower waste trap. Depending on your specific shower tray and trap installation, this may involve unscrewing the existing waste fitting or trap body. Once accessed, the old inner cup can be removed and the new one inserted. Ensure it sits correctly within the trap mechanism before reassembling any external components. Always refer to the original ST90CP shower waste installation manual if available.

Compatibility: This inner cup is specifically designed to fit McAlpine ST90CP shower trap models. It is crucial to confirm that your existing shower waste is the ST90CP variant before purchasing to ensure a proper fit and function.

Care: As the inner cup is located within the shower trap, direct cleaning is infrequent. However, to maintain optimal performance, periodic cleaning of the entire shower waste assembly is recommended. This typically involves removing the trap cover and any accessible internal parts, rinsing them, and clearing any debris. The plastic material of the inner cup is resistant to standard bathroom cleaning agents, but avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.
