Installation hints:
- Since it traps items that may fall into the drain and blocks gases from the waste drain system, water and dirt will be present in the existing trap. Place a bucket under the old trap before attempting to remove it.
- Put thread sealant tape or pipe dope on the drain threads before attaching nuts. This will provide a better seal against leaks.
- Use a scrap of cloth to protect chrome finish on the nuts when you tighten with a pipe wrench.
