FAQs

What size connection does this waste fitting use?

This waste fitting uses a standard G 1 ¼ BSPP connection, which is common for basin sinks.

Does this waste fitting require an overflow hole in the sink?

While the waste fitting will function without an overflow hole, it is designed to integrate with sinks that have one. The overflow feature helps prevent the sink from overfilling.

How do I operate the pop-up mechanism?

Simply push down on the plug to seal the drain and push again to open it for draining. It is a sprung plug activated by touch.

What is the material of the waste plug?

The waste plug is constructed from solid brass with a superior chrome finish.

How should I clean the chrome finish?

Clean the chrome finish using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, as they can scratch the surface.

Are the sealing washers replaceable?

Yes, the double sealing washers are replaceable. If you notice leaks, check the condition of the washers and replace them if they appear worn or damaged.

Can I install this waste fitting myself?

Yes, the waste fitting is designed for easy installation with standard plumbing connections. Basic DIY skills and tools are typically sufficient. Instructions are provided in the Setup section.

Troubleshooting

Plug does not seal properly, water leaks through.

Ensure the double sealing washers are correctly seated and not damaged. Check that the sink drain opening is clean and free of debris. Tighten the securing nut from underneath the sink, but do not overtighten.

Pop-up mechanism is stiff or difficult to operate.

Check for any obstructions around the plug or within the waste pipe. Clean the mechanism with mild soap and water. Ensure proper alignment of the pop-up rod.

Water drains too slowly.

Inspect the waste pipe and trap for any blockages. Clean any debris from the plug and the drain opening. Ensure the pop-up plug is fully open for maximum drainage.

Overflow feature is not working.

Verify that the sink has an overflow hole and that it is not blocked. Ensure the waste fitting is correctly installed to align with the sink's overflow.
