Captive Basin Waste..Opinions
I have one of these captive basin wastes .
http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/...93543&ts=84870 I am wishing I hadn't got it to replace my popup waste . I find it difficult to get the plug to remain "open" when you lift it and tilt it to the side .It keeps falling back in to the plughole . Also if the water is too hot you burn yourself putting your hand in to lift the plug . I am seriously thinking of taking the waste apart and sawing off the bottom of the rod below the plug to make it non-captive .That would,at least ,allow me to take it completely out when emptying the basin . Anyone else got one of these or is there a knack to using it . Bring back the plug and chain . Stuart |
