FAQs
- What Size is a Standard Shower Waste?
2" (50mm) – Buy this if you have a shower tray with a 50mm waste hole. However, if you have a large shower tray, you may require a larger shower waste.
- What Is Fast Flow Waste?
Often used with large shower trays, Fast-flow waste lets more water drain per minute than standard waste. These wastes typically have a higher drainage rate, which means they can move a larger volume of water through the drainage pipes in a shorter period.
At our online store, we offer fast-flow waste, and it comes in different diameter sizes. Before buying, measure the drain hole diameter in your shower tray to get the right one.
- What Causes a Blocked Shower Drain?
Shower drains typically get blocked with hair, especially if someone shaves in the shower. Soap residue coats the hair and gradually reduces the water flow. If you live in a hard water area, it can leave behind mineral deposits in the pipes, which can eventually lead to a blockage.
- Do Shower Wastes Clog Easily?
It is an unpleasant fact that the waste does get clogged up. They are easy to clean, pull off the chrome cap, and manually remove any debris. The blockage happens gradually and can sometimes be cleared with a sink plunger. Clean it once a month to prevent total blockages.
