Designed for homeowners and DIYers, the FloPlast Overflow & Waste Hose Connector provides a reliable and hygienic way to manage wastewater from appliances like dishwashers and washing machines. Its key benefit lies in its versatile compatibility with both plastic and copper waste pipes. However, users must ensure their existing plumbing matches the specified 32mm or 40mm pipe diameters for proper installation.

This FloPlast connector is compatible with both plastic and copper waste pipes of 32mm (1 1/4") and 40mm (1 1/2") diameters.
Yes, this connector is specifically designed for use with waste hoses from both dishwashers and washing machines, providing a convenient and secure connection for either appliance.
It is manufactured from durable, white high-temperature polypropylene, which is resistant to hot wastewater and ensures long-lasting performance.
Yes, the product is covered by a standard one-year warranty that protects against manufacturing faults.
To achieve a leak-free connection, ensure that the pipe ends are cut cleanly and squarely, without burrs. Position all rubber seals correctly within the compression fittings, and tighten the compression nuts firmly but without over-tightening.
While durable, this connector is primarily designed for indoor household waste systems. For outdoor applications, it's recommended to use products specifically rated for external environmental exposure to ensure longevity and performance.
Basic plumbing tools are recommended for a proper installation. This typically includes a pipe cutter or hacksaw for clean pipe ends and an adjustable wrench for securely tightening the compression fittings.
Ensure all compression nuts are hand-tightened, then use a wrench for a quarter to half turn more. Check that the pipe ends are cut squarely and free of burrs, and that rubber seals are correctly seated and undamaged. Dismantle, inspect, reassemble carefully, and test.
Verify the appliance hose is securely pushed fully into the connector's intended inlet. If the hose is secured with a clip, ensure the clip is properly fastened and provides a snug fit. Check if the hose diameter matches the connector's inlet size.
Confirm that your existing waste pipe is either 32mm (1 1/4") or 40mm (1 1/2"). If not, this connector is not suitable without an appropriate reducing adapter (purchased separately). Ensure pipe ends are clean and smooth, and try lubricating the seals with a small amount of silicone grease for easier assembly.
