How to use

Position the trap beneath the shower tray drain opening and align the 52 mm outlet with the corresponding waste pipe. Secure the trap connection using appropriate solvent weld, push-fit, or compression fittings consistent with the installed pipe system and local plumbing practice. Ensure the chrome cover is placed correctly over the visible opening and tighten any securing components. After installation, run water to check for leaks and confirm adequate drainage flow.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible 52 mm pipe fittings and seals to ensure a watertight connection. Clean the chrome cover periodically with a mild non-abrasive cleaner to maintain finish and prevent limescale build-up. Inspect the trap connection after the first days of use and during routine maintenance to verify there are no leaks or loose fittings.
