    Another great video explaining how to clean your shower trap and waste. This really is an essential routine job to keep your water flowing smoothly and your shower tray empty. If you do won’t to clean the pipe run after you can pour some of the foaming drain cleaner available from most stores down the pipe and flush an hour later with hot water. Thanks for a great video tutorial.

      Only if you pump it way to high.

    Hi Al. Happy new year to you all. Having just watched some of your videos, if you can point me in the right direction, that would be just great. The pump no longer switches itself off after the using my shower, so I am turning it on and off manually. Any ideas? David.

    • @dereton33

      The flow switch is gone I am afraid. It is turning on but not switching off.

      Not unless you pump up too much pressure.

    You must explain to Mo that she mustn't use the shower without supervision because her eyebrows keeps falling out and blocking the plughole -- the promise of a marrow-filled bone or the threat of abandonment will be all that's needed; she will even supply her own soap after that!

    Hi Al, the cover that you unscrewed at the start of the video and that pot you pulled out from the trap is missing from our step-free trayless wetroom (council bodge job) the waste pipe is vertically to the side. Could I get the parts from eBay?

    • @dereton33
      @dereton33  4 года назад +1

      You would have to buy the complete trap in order to get the basket part, I don`t think you can get that separate as a part. Do check Amazon and E bay though.

      Yes that is the one, just measure the width across the hole they are usually 90 mm.

      @@dereton33 is fitting it quite straightforward? I've only realised these parts are missing because we're getting slugs entering through the drain pipe and have the dreaded sewer gas smell. Plus when it rains you can hear the vibrations through the pipe. The wetroom was fitted by the council for my disabled mother and it seems like they were a bunch of cowboys.

      Bit rude to self promote in a new thread/comment. So, I deliberately thought that I'd wait to see if you responded to the glove issue in this thread.
      Case in point blockages and gloves. Your observations/response/comments would be greatly appreciated. Cat litter down the potty.
