Installing your WATERMARK MPU6 Soft Touch Lavatory Drain properly ensures a leak-free and aesthetically pleasing finish. Here's a straightforward guide:
-
Disassembly:
- Unscrew the tailpiece from the drain body.
- Unscrew the nut and remove the washer and bottom gasket from the drain body.
-
Positioning in Sink:
- From the top of the sink, insert the drain components into the sink opening.
- If the cap has a Watermark logo, orient it as desired.
-
Reassembly:
- Place the bottom gasket on top of the nylon washer.
- Place the nylon washer on top of the nut.
- Screw the nut back onto the drain body, but avoid over-tightening.
-
Securing the Tailpiece:
- Apply Teflon tape to the threads on the tailpiece.
- Screw the tailpiece back into the drain body.
-
Connection and Leak Check:
- Connect the drain to the p-trap.
- Carefully inspect for any leaks.
Important Installation Notes:
- Always use Teflon tape or pipe sealant for threaded connections to prevent leaks.
- Do not use plumber’s putty on brass components as it can cause tarnishing. Instead, a non-corrosive Alkoxy Silicone sealant is recommended.
