{"title":"Bottle Traps","description":"\u003cp\u003eA bottle trap is the visible chrome (or matt black, or brushed brass) waste fitting that connects a basin to the soil pipe — designed to look like a feature rather than something to hide. It earns its name from the bottle-like shape of the trap section, which holds water to prevent drain odours coming back up the pipe. At Clan Bathrooms we stock 11 bottle traps in matching bathroom finishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen you need a bottle trap\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBottle traps come into their own when the basin's waste pipework is visible — typically with \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/wall-hung-basins\"\u003ewall hung basins\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/sit-on-top-bowls\"\u003ecountertop basins\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/basin-pedestal\"\u003epedestal-mounted basins\u003c\/a\u003e where the trap can't be hidden in a vanity unit.
