Non-return outside drain

olly_k · 4 Aug 2019

Hi folks, our outside (shared) drain became overwhelmed during the heavy rains recently, but more worryingly, I noticed the ball was not sitting against the rubber seal that is part of the non-return aspect to the drain. Cleaning the ball helped a little, but I think it would benefit from a new rubber seal. Are these available as spares and if so what are they called?

Can you take a pic further back showing more - there is something in the LH corner ? Looks like a salt glazed drain with the n/r ball etc. fitted into it somehow.

Hi Nige, you can probably see the drain cover to one side. You can see the entire drain. The cover seems to be held on with two screws. I could try to remove later.

If you can’t find one you could always swap to one of the horizontal ones with the flap, they need to be accessible though so you will have to have it in a chamber of some sort.
