Make a clay or sediment trap for your sink, using plumbing parts.

- Опубликовано: 30 мар 2019
- A sediment trap from ceramic supply places is quite expensive. This one can be built from plumbing parts.
parts
abs trap adapter for sink drains sized to fit your piping
www.homedepot.ca/product/nibc...
usually 1 1/2" or 2", sometimes 1 1/4"
mine is 1 1/2" and the adapter is for this size
once you know that it fits your p trap, buy 2
you will only use the cap from one of them
sink drain tailpiece
www.homedepot.ca/product/dura...
plastic, copper or chrome doesn't matter
a short length of your diameter pipe for connecting the trap adapter to the reducing coupling
(or you could buy male trap adapters if available)
sewer pipe cleanout bushing
www.homedepot.ca/product/less...
A short length of abs 3" pipe to make the body of the sediment trap and join the reducer to the cleanout
sewer pipe cleanout plug

sewer pipe reducing coupling

One more thing ... cleaning this is a stinky and messy affair. Do it outside if possible and have a buck of water handy for rinsing
Nice video and nicely made sediment trap....
thank you
This is a very informative video, thanks for sharing it. Two questions - how will you know when the sediment trap is full? and how easy is that bottle going to be to clean?
The bottom of the 'bottle' unscrews for easy cleaning ... I do not really know when the trap is full so I schedule cleaning based on the amount I use this sink for cleaning clay tools.
In the past, once every 6 months was good but as I am retiring, it will probably need cleaning every 4 months or so.
I just want to add that a little vaseline on the threads will make the bottom easier to remove.
But is there room for a suitable tray to go under the screw bottom, as there will be water all the way up into the p-trap!
Very nice and clever. Thank you for posting. I tried to replicate it, but mine has a leak from the metal pipe part. I included the rings and tried tighten the collars, to no avail. What am I missing?
Both threaded end caps must be the kind that are used for the sink drain pipe. And the pipe itself must be the kind used for sink drains. These should be standard size, but it sounds like your pipe diameter is smaller than your caps are meant for.
@@clifcarver I'l double check.thanks !
@@tonyc4360 If the plastic O ring is reasonably tight to the pipe it is probably the right size. One other possibility is that the design of the P trap isn't allowing the plastic O ring to be squeezed tight. If this seems to be the case you could cut a small piece ( say 1/8") off a suitable diameter plastic pipe that would act as a spacer and give the cap something to tighten against.
clifton if you can provide with diagram and all size of pieces required and their name will be appreciable
I am quite busy right now but I will try to put something together in the next few days.
I added a parts list in my Description with links to hardware store items. I think the video makes it clear as to how to assemble them. If you are not sure of your sink drain size, you could take the cap off the p trap and take it to the hardware store for comparison. Hope this helps.
cool but make sure you can easily remove it since that attachment is not code.
What code are you using that forbids add-ons like this? (Legit curious, not doubting you, since codes are different everywhere)
@@jodystradesstuff5048 all codes don’t allow this
@@jacksplumbingvideos7147 I see a lot of products being sold that claim to be code compliant, and are basically exactly this but commercial, I don't see how they are *all* lying. Hopefully you can do a video sometime soon on the right way (so that you would agree that it's code compliant) to capture clay and plaster, it would be super interesting to see your take on this problem!
@@jodystradesstuff5048 they are made out of one piece and get approved. His contraption is not approved.
