Description
KLARWOD 40 mm trap for water softener backwash and overflow drainage is a compact bottle trap designed to discharge water softener backwash safely and hygienically to the sewer. Its air gap and water odour seal help prevent contaminated water from flowing back, reduce sewer odours and support correct softener operation.
Water softener drain trap
The water softener trap is a practical fitting for draining backwash water and emergency overflow to the sewer. Its compact design suits boiler rooms, utility rooms and locations with limited installation space.
The trap supports hygienic backwash drainage, helps prevent contaminated water from flowing back and eliminates unpleasant sewer odours.
Key benefits
- Effective odour barrier — a water seal forms a barrier against unpleasant sewer odours.
- Safe operation — the built-in air gap protects the softener and plumbing against contaminated water flowing back.
- Compact size — an ideal solution for tight spaces, boiler rooms and utility rooms.
- Easy installation — the simple design and 40 mm side outlet provide a quick, convenient connection.
- Practical application — connects the control valve's backwash drain and the brine tank's emergency overflow to the sewer.
Installation hygiene and safety
The trap's most important function is to provide an air gap between the softener discharge and the sewer system. This key protective feature reduces the risk of wastewater being drawn back into the unit.
The trap therefore helps protect the softener and plumbing by providing safe backwash drainage and supporting correct operation of the water treatment system.
Trap applications
The trap is an important fitting when installing a water softener. It connects two essential drains to one sewer outlet.
- Draining backwash from the control valve: water discharged after media regeneration.
- Draining the brine tank's emergency overflow.
The backwash trap maintains hygienic separation between the softener discharge and the sewer. Its water odour seal helps prevent unpleasant smells from entering the room.
Easy installation and compact design
The trap has a 40 mm side outlet for convenient connection to standard drainage plumbing. Its compact shape makes installation easier even where space is limited.
The simple design allows the softener hoses to be connected quickly to the appropriate trap inlets, followed by connection of the trap outlet to the drainpipe.
