The McAlpine Basin Kit (A32UK-CP) is designed for homeowners and plumbers seeking an elegant and functional solution for basins without pedestals. Its primary benefit is providing a robust trap to prevent sewer gases while offering adjustability for easy installation. A potential consideration is that it's made of chrome-plated plastic, which may not suit all aesthetic preferences or extreme durability requirements compared to solid metal alternatives. This kit includes a chrome-plated plastic adjustable inlet bottle trap, a 16-inch 32mm waste pipe, and a wall flange, all designed for durability and ease of use.

A bottle trap contains a water seal that prevents foul-smelling sewer gases from entering your home through the drain.
It is designed for standard 1 1/4 inch basin waste outlets and is particularly useful for basins without pedestals. Ensure your existing plumbing matches the 32mm outlet size or use the provided adapter.
The bottle trap can be unscrewed for cleaning. Use mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that could damage the chrome finish.
The included waste pipe is 16 inches long. It can be trimmed if a shorter length is required, but it cannot be extended beyond its stated length without adding extension pieces.
The inlet connection can be moved up or down to some extent, allowing for easier alignment with the basin waste outlet and the wall drain, accommodating slight variations in plumbing position.
The kit includes the bottle trap, a 16" waste pipe, and a wall flange. You may need basic plumbing tools like a wrench or pliers, and potentially sealant or PTFE tape depending on your existing pipework.
The kit comes with an MS4-32SOLVENT fitting which is designed to connect the 32mm European outlet to standard UK pipe sizes (typically 32mm or 40mm).
Ensure all washers are correctly seated and connections are hand-tightened sufficiently. Avoid overtightening plastic parts. Check for any damage to the pipes or fittings.
Verify the water seal is present by running water. Ensure the trap is correctly installed and all joints are sealed. Check if the vent system in the building is functioning correctly.
Check the bottle trap for any debris or blockage. Clean the trap if necessary. Ensure the waste pipe is not kinked or obstructed.
The 16" waste pipe offers significant length. If still insufficient, consider using a flexible waste pipe extension (sold separately).
