Product Information

Full details

The Flode Flip-Top Click-Clack Basin Waste in brushed brass is designed for homeowners and renovators seeking a reliable, stylish upgrade for basins with an overflow. Its core benefit is the effortless push-to-open and push-to-close mechanism, which eliminates the need for unsightly pull-rods or plugs. While it offers a sophisticated aesthetic and durable build, users should note that this specific model is strictly for slotted basins, meaning it is not suitable for overflow-free basins.

FAQs

Does this work with basins that do not have an overflow?

No, this is a slotted waste designed exclusively for basins that have an overflow.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will typically need an adjustable basin wrench or a set of pliers, and possibly some silicone sealant or plumber's tape.

What is the diameter of the cap?

The cap has a 60mm diameter.

Is the finish resistant to water spots?

The brushed brass finish is durable, but like all metal finishes, it should be wiped dry after use to prevent water spot accumulation.

Will this fit a 32mm pipe?

Yes, this model features a standard 1 1/4 inch (approx. 32mm) male thread connection.

Troubleshooting

Water leaking from underneath the basin

Check that the rubber washer is correctly seated and that the back-nut is fully tightened.

The waste button does not click or stay down

Unscrew the cap and clear any debris or hair from the spring mechanism, then ensure the spring is correctly aligned.

Slow drainage

Inspect the overflow slots for blockages and ensure the waste cap is fully opened.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Flode Basin Waste is straightforward for those with basic plumbing knowledge. Ensure the rubber seals are correctly positioned to prevent leaks before tightening the locking nut against the basin body. The G1 1/4 inch thread is standard, but always apply plumbers' tape or appropriate sealant to the threads to ensure a watertight connection. To maintain the brushed brass finish, clean only with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive sponges, scourers, or acidic cleaning agents, which can strip the protective finish and lead to premature tarnishing.
