FAQs

What material is the Balterley Round Basin Pop Up Waste made from?

The waste is manufactured from high-quality materials with a durable chrome finish.

Is this waste suitable for all types of basins?

It is designed to fit standard bathroom basins with a pre-drilled overflow hole and the correct aperture size for waste fitting.

How do I clean and maintain the chrome finish?

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. A mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner can be used for tougher marks.

Can I use this waste with basins that don't have an overflow hole?

This specific pop-up waste is designed for basins with an overflow hole. Using it without one may affect its proper function.

What does 'pop up waste' mean?

A pop-up waste has a mechanism, usually operated by a lever on the tap or a push-button on the waste itself, that allows you to open and close the drain plug.

Are matching taps and other accessories available?

Yes, matching brassware is available in the Balterley ranges to ensure a consistent bathroom design.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's website for specific warranty information, as this can vary.

Troubleshooting

Waste is leaking around the basin.

Ensure plumber's putty or sealant is correctly applied during installation. Check that all securing nuts are tightened appropriately.

Pop-up mechanism is stiff or not operating smoothly.

Check the linkage between the pop-up rod and the waste. Ensure there are no obstructions. Clean and lubricate the moving parts if necessary.

Water is draining slowly even when the waste is closed.

The seal may be worn or damaged. Inspect the rubber seal at the base of the waste for any signs of deterioration and replace if necessary.

Chrome finish appears dull or discolored.

Clean the surface with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals. For persistent discoloration, consider the possibility of hard water buildup and address accordingly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation typically involves fitting the waste through the basin's drain hole and securing it with the provided fittings. It's recommended to use plumber's putty or a suitable sealant to ensure a watertight seal between the waste and the basin. Connecting the pop-up mechanism to the basin's overflow pipe is a standard procedure, usually involving a clevis or similar linkage.

Compatibility: This waste is designed to fit standard bathroom basins with a pre-drilled overflow hole. While it's part of the Balterley range, it should also be compatible with most standard basin plumbing configurations. Ensure your basin has the correct size aperture for waste fitting.

Care: To maintain the chrome finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner can be used. Periodically check the pop-up mechanism and seals for wear and tear.
