How to Replace a Click-Clack Stopper in a Sink?

Replacing a sink stopper in the mechanism of a click-clack stopper is one of the simpler tasks. Thanks to our commitment to the highest quality of our products, stoppers are exceptionally easy to use. The replacement of the stopper itself has never posed a problem for anyone, so we will assist you and show you how to do it. If you have misplaced your instructions on how to install a new stopper, check whether the manufacturer’s site has it in the form of a PDF file. Very often this way, you can find what you need.

1. First, you need to remove the external stopper from the opening, which we usually place and remove freely as needed.
2. Next, unscrew the old stopper, which is attached to the sink drain, by turning it in one direction until you can remove it freely.
3. Remember to hold the siphon from below at all times to prevent it from coming out when you unscrew and remove the stopper. There might be water in it.
4. The spot where the old stopper was attached will be dirty, so wipe the opening. You must do this very thoroughly so that the seal of the new stopper adheres completely to the surface. Otherwise, the drain will be leaky, and improper installation will lead to water leakage.
5. Take the new stopper and screw together the two main parts connected to each other. Place the upper part of the drain on top so that the seal on it adheres to the sink. The lower part will complement the seal.
6. Next, put it from beneath the sink and connect both parts together by screwing them. Properly placed seals will secure the sink against water leakage.
7. Also, remember to tighten the siphon. Finally, check if everything works by running water through the pipes with the stopper open, allowing the drain to operate without obstruction.
