FloPlast Washing Machine Trap - 600mm Standpipe And Clips x 40mm White

This type of washing machine trap is the traditional washing machine standpipe trap. It is used when a washing machine has a waste pipe connection that is separate from the kitchen sink, i.e. when a washing machine is sited in a utility room. The outlet hose of the washing machine is hooked over the top of the standpipe - most washing machines come with a semi-circular outlet pipe guide that is made for exactly this purpose. The standpipe is secured to the wall with the pipe clips provided. This trap is manufactured by FloPlast, one of the UK’s leading suppliers of above and below ground drainage systems. It can be connected to most UK manufacturers’ push fit and solvent weld waste pipes. To connect the outlet of the trap to the waste pipe, unscrew the nut from the trap and remove it along with the washer and the rubber seal. Place these three components over the end of the pipe – first the nut, then the washer followed by the seal. Push the pipe into the trap as far as it will go, slide the seal and washer forward into position and tighten the nut. On all traps, double check that the central joint in the body of the trap is tight. All joints can be taken apart again if required, but always check that the rubber seal has not been damaged in any way as this will cause the joint to leak.
