Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the purpose of a bottle trap?

A bottle trap prevents sewer gases from entering your home and also catches debris that might otherwise clog your pipes.

What type of pipes can this trap be used with?

This trap is compatible with plastic, copper, and lead pipes.

How do I clean the McAlpine Adjustable Bottle Trap?

Unscrew the bottom of the trap and remove any debris. Rinse with water and reassemble.

What is the water seal?

The water seal is a specific depth of water held within the trap, which blocks sewer gases.

Does this trap come with a warranty?

Yes, it comes with a 10-year guarantee.

What is the purpose of the anti-siphon valve?

The anti-siphon valve prevents negative pressure from siphoning the water out of the trap, which can lead to sewer gas entering the room. It also prevents gurgling noises.

How do I adjust the inlet?

The inlet is adjustable to accommodate different pipe configurations. Loosen the appropriate fittings, adjust to the desired position, and retighten.

Troubleshooting

Water drains slowly or not at all.

Check for blockages in the trap. Remove the trap and clean out any debris.

Unpleasant odours are present.

Ensure the water seal is intact. Check for leaks and tighten any loose connections.

Gurgling sounds are heard.

Ensure the anti-siphon valve is functioning correctly. Check for any air locks in the system.
