Shower Waste Traps
A shower drain trap is installed beneath the shower tray and connects the tray to your waste pipes, ensuring quick and efficient drainage when you shower.
A good shower trap cover will protect the drain from blockages caused by the everyday debris that accumulates during every shower, such as hair or soap suds. That’s why it’s so important to regularly clean your shower hair trap – it’s essential for draining away water quickly and hygienically.
Your shower tray trap also protects the bathroom from hazards beneath. Designed to always hold a small amount of water, it acts as a physical barrier that blocks sewer gases and odours from rising – a shower trap is a crucial fitting for preserving a clean and comfortable living space.
