Product Information
Full details
The NES Home BW08 Slotted Basin Waste is an essential plumbing component designed for homeowners and DIYers who need a reliable, classic drainage solution for bathroom sinks equipped with an internal overflow. It delivers a consistent seal through a traditional brass plug and chain mechanism, ensuring long-term durability and a polished aesthetic in any bathroom. While it offers a timeless look and robust build, users should note that the manual plug and chain mechanism requires more tactile effort compared to modern click-clack pop-up waste designs.

FAQs
Can I use this on a sink without an overflow?
No, this waste is specifically designed for basins with an overflow. Using it on a basin without one will cause leaks.
Is the finish prone to peeling?
With proper care and avoidance of harsh chemicals, the high-quality chrome finish is designed to be long-lasting and resistant to peeling.
What tools do I need for installation?
You will typically need a basin wrench or an adjustable spanner and perhaps some plumber's putty for extra security.
Is the chain removable?
Yes, the ball chain can be detached from the plug and the attachment point if you need to replace it or change the look.
What is the diameter of this waste?
This is a standard sized basin waste designed to fit most UK and international standard bathroom basins.
Does it come with a guarantee?
Please check your specific retailer receipt or packaging, as the NES Home brand adheres to standard manufacturing defect warranties.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking from underneath the basin
Ensure the rubber washers are correctly seated and the under-basin nut is tightened securely.
The sink drains too slowly
Check the overflow slots for debris or hair buildup and ensure the drain pipe is clear of blockages.
Plug does not hold water in the basin
Inspect the rubber seal on the bottom of the brass plug for debris or damage; replace if worn.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your basin features an overflow hole; this product is not compatible with 'no-overflow' basin types. Begin by placing the upper flange through the basin hole with a washer, then secure it from underneath using the provided nut and rubber seal. Use a basin wrench to tighten the nut firmly, but take care not to overtighten to avoid cracking porcelain. For care, clean the chrome finish regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap to prevent lime scale buildup. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or steel wool, as these can scratch the chrome plating and lead to tarnishing over time.
