Ikea LILLVIKEN Water trap Replacement

Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 3.20 PM

Hi, My Ikea kitchen came with an Ikea Lillviken water trap; https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/kitchen-products/kitchen-taps-sinks/lillviken-water-trap-strainer-1-bowl-art-10311539/ However given the knuckle on the trap, the water flows very slowly out of the sink. I'm therefore looking to replace the whole kit. I currently have this sink with an overflow; https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/kitchen-products/kitchen-taps-sinks/havsen-sink-bowl-w-visible-front-white-spr-19253714/ I will also need to connect up waste pipes for a dishwasher, washing machine and boiler. Can someone help me with the replacement like for like components I would need? Kind regards, Sam

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

https://www.screwfix.com/p/stainless-steel-strainer-waste-1-bowl-90mm/9411k 9411K - £3.99 Strainer waste has round overflow. Make sure yours one round too. https://www.screwfix.com/p/mcalpine-space-saving-sink-appliance-p-trap-white-40mm/66149 66149 - £28.35 Trap kit has two 40mm connection. One you can convert to 21.5mm condencing pipe via reducer. I personaly preffer rubber bush available from City Plumbing. https://www.cityplumbing.co.uk/Polypipe-Waste-Rubber-Reducer-Black-32-mm-x-21-5-mm-WP73/p/916377 https://www.cityplumbing.co.uk/Polypipe-Waste-Rubber-Reducer-Black-40-x-21-5-mm-WP74/p/916396 Have both of those for any case if 40mm doesn't fit.
