Securplumb Universal S Trap - White

WRAS approval means the product has been inspected and meets the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme standards for water supply, ensuring it is safe and does not contaminate drinking water.

While designed for sinks and basins, its universal fit and material properties might allow it for certain washing machine outlets, provided the connection sizes match and it can be securely installed to prevent backflow and odors.

You can usually unscrew the nuts holding the trap in place, carefully remove the U-bend section, and clear any debris. Reassemble securely, ensuring seals are in place, and test for leaks.

Painting polypropylene is generally not recommended as paint may not adhere well and could flake off, especially given the potential exposure to water and cleaning agents. It is designed to be used as is.

An S trap is designed to hold a water seal that prevents unpleasant sewer gases and odors from entering your home through the drain.

BS EN 274 is a European standard specifically for sanitary tapware, including traps. Compliance indicates the product meets specified performance, safety, and dimensional requirements.

Check all connections for tightness. Ensure any rubber seals or washers are correctly seated and not damaged. Re-tighten connections or replace seals if necessary.

The water seal in the S trap may have evaporated or is insufficient. Ensure the trap is full of water by running the tap for a few moments. If odors persist, check for blockages or leaks further down the drain system.

The trap or the connected drain pipe may be partially blocked. Disassemble the S trap according to care instructions and clean out any accumulated debris. Check the main drain for blockages as well.

While heat resistant, extreme or prolonged exposure to very high temperatures might cause deformation. Inspect the trap for damage. If deformed, replacement may be necessary.
