How to avoid blockages in waste pipes

Whilst the waste pipes of Waterless Urinals block less frequently than for most flushed urinals, uric acid salts can still form a sludge which eventually could cause a blockage. Sludge can be a particular problem if the waste pipes are shared with sinks or are poorly configured. Gentworks recommends periodic sluicing with Bactericidal Cleaner to break down this sludge and carry it away into the main drain. The GW6 valve can be sluiced regularly; once every 2 to 4 weeks is recommended. The solution used should be approximately 1 part Bactericidal Cleaner to 9 parts warm water from the washroom hot tap.
