FAQs

What is the main advantage of the push-fit system?

The push-fit system with its snap-cap significantly reduces installation time and complexity, eliminating the need for solvent cement or special tools while providing a secure, watertight connection.

Can this gully trap be used for above-ground drainage?

While designed for underground use, its PVCu construction and finish might allow for above-ground applications where aesthetics and specific connections suit. However, its primary design intent is for buried systems.

What standards does this product comply with?

The Polypipe Universal Gully Trap complies with BS EN 1401 and BS4660:2000 standards, ensuring it meets rigorous UK and European requirements for underground drainage.

What is the purpose of the 45-degree angle?

The 45-degree angle is designed to facilitate efficient flow direction of wastewater into the main drainage line, reducing the risk of sediment buildup.

How durable is the PVCu material?

PVCu is known for its excellent durability, offering resistance to corrosion, impact, and ground conditions, making it a long-lasting alternative to traditional drainage materials.

Can I connect this to pipes of a different diameter?

No, this is a 110mm gully trap and is designed to connect with other 110mm drainage components. Adapters may be available for different sizes, but direct connection is only for 110mm pipes.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty pushing pipe into the gully trap socket.

Ensure both pipe ends are clean and free of obstructions. Apply silicone lubricant to the rubber seal if needed and ensure you are pushing the spigot end into the socket end.

Suspected leak at the joint.

Check that the pipe was fully inserted into the socket. Inspect the rubber seal for damage and ensure it is seated correctly. Disassemble and reassemble the joint if necessary.

Blockage within the gully trap.

Use a drain rod or appropriate tool to clear the blockage. Ensure the trap's internal channel is clear of debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
