Siphons and Accessories: Reliable Drainage and Everyday Comfort

Siphons and drainage systems are essential components of any plumbing installation. They ensure tight and secure connections to the sewer system and prevent unpleasant odors from entering your living space. A properly selected siphon promotes efficient water drainage and long-lasting performance of the entire system.

What Is a Siphon and Why Is It Important?

A siphon is a curved pipe (typically U- or S-shaped) that retains a small amount of water to create a water seal, effectively blocking sewer gases from escaping into the room. In our range, you will find:

• Corrugated siphons – universal solutions for sinks and washbasins
• Siphons without overflow – minimalist and simple connections
• Low-profile click-clack siphons – ideal for low-level shower enclosures
• Siphons with washing machine connection and double siphons – space-saving and convenient for appliance integration
• Bath siphons with overflow, urinal siphons, and decorative chrome siphons

Accessories for Siphon and Drainage Systems

To ensure full functionality and reliability, your siphon system needs quality accessories:

• Flexible hoses and universal pipes – easy and adjustable connections
• WC elbows (0–90°), adjustable pipes, and toilet connectors
• Linear and vertical drains – for walk-in showers and sloped floors
• Ready-to-install drain kits – from Vento and other trusted brands
• Overflows, pop-up and plug drains – for smooth and user-friendly water management
• Gaskets: double-sided, conical, transition, thin – for watertight sealing
• Side inlet fittings – for cistern and tank installations
• Stoppers, adapters, dual washing machine hoses, and drain cleaning cables – practical maintenance tools

Maintenance Tips

• Regularly check your siphon’s seal and clean it to prevent blockages and odors
• Use original gaskets and connectors to reduce the risk of leaks
• Install dry trap drains in rarely used rooms – they prevent odors even when no water is present
