Blanco 443261 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does a dishwasher air gap actually do, and do I need one?
An air gap sits on the sink deck between the dishwasher drain hose and the sink drain, and it stops waste water being pushed back into the dishwasher when the drain line clogs. Without one, a backed-up sink can flood the dishwasher with contaminated water. Many plumbing codes require one, and the Blanco 443261 air gap meets those requirements.
2) Will the Blanco 443261 air gap fit the extra hole in my sink deck?
It's sized for Blanco faucet holes, so it drops into the accessory hole on a Blanco sink deck without adapters. On a non-Blanco sink or a countertop-mounted installation, measure your existing hole before ordering.
3) Is the Blanco air gap plastic or metal?
Solid brass. That matters on a sink deck where a plastic cap can crack or discolour over time, and it's why this holds up better than the chrome-plated plastic air gaps that ship with many dishwashers.
4) What finish does the Blanco 443261 air gap come in, and will it match my faucet?
Model 443261 is the Satin Platinum version. Blanco builds the same air gap in Polished Chrome, PVD Steel, Matte Black and Satin Gold as well, so if you're matching an existing Blanco faucet or strainer, pick the model in that finish rather than this one. The finishes resist tarnishing and corrosion.
5) I manage apartments with Blanco sinks. Can I standardize on this air gap across units?
Yes. It's a single part number, 443261, that fits any Blanco faucet hole, so one SKU covers a mixed fleet of Blanco sink decks. The brass body and tarnish-resistant finish are the reason it holds up better than the plastic caps that come loose or yellow in high-turnover units.
