OATEY 43637 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size pipe does the Oatey 43637 bell trap drain connect to?
The 43637 bell trap fits over 1-1/2 in. PVC Sch. 40 DWV pipe, or it will drop into a 2 in. coupling if that is what you have stubbed up. The connection is solvent weld, so you are gluing it to the pipe with PVC cement, not threading it.
2) How does a bell trap drain keep sewer gas out of a garage or patio?
Water draining through the 43637 collects in a well built into the drain body, and that standing water acts as the trap seal that blocks sewer gas from coming back up the line. It is self contained, so you do not need a separate P-trap below the drain. The tradeoff with any bell trap is that the seal depends on the well staying wet, so in an area that dries out for long stretches it can lose its seal until water runs again.
3) Do I need to install a separate P-trap under the Oatey 43637?
No. The trap is integral to this drain. Water pools in a well inside the body and that is the seal, so the outlet solvent welds straight to your 1-1/2 in. DWV branch. If you already have a P-trap in the line below, adding this on top gives you a double trap, which is something to avoid on a drainage branch.
4) What are the grate dimensions on the Oatey 43637 drain?
It is a 6 x 6 in. square bell trap drain, so plan your opening in the slab or deck around a 6 inch square grate face rather than a round cut.
5) Is the strainer on this Oatey bell trap removable for cleaning?
Yes. The strainer snaps into the drain body, so a maintenance tech can pop it out by hand to clear leaves and silt out of the trap well and snap it back in. No screws to strip or replace.
6) What do I need on hand to install this bell trap drain?
PVC primer and solvent cement, since the body glues to the pipe, and a 1-1/2 in. Sch. 40 DWV stub (or a 2 in. coupling to seat it into). Nothing threads, and no gaskets or clamping ring are part of this drain, so the body is the whole assembly along with its snap-in strainer.
7) Is the Oatey 43637 suitable for a shower or a floor drain inside a waterproofed area?
No. This is a general purpose PVC bell trap for garage, patio and outdoor drains. It has no clamping ring or weep holes for tying into a shower pan or waterproofing membrane, so for a tiled or membrane floor you want a proper shower drain body with a clamping collar instead.
8) What is the exact part number and weight if I am ordering Oatey bell traps in quantity?
Order it as Oatey 43637. Each drain weighs 0.71 and takes 0.066 of shipping volume, which is useful if you are palletizing a multi-unit order for a property portfolio.
