Drains

Drains are essential for your sink as they allow water, bacteria, and food crumbs to be cleaned out and washed away. They are placed in the center of the basin where they can be opened and closed to choose when water flows through. Once you have a sink ready to go, a drain is one of the final steps! There are various kinds of drains available and some are better than others depending on the style, material, or placement of your sink. Choose from a variety of drains here at CopperSmith.

Press and Seal Drain

Also known as a pop-up drain, this is one of the most commonly sold drains here at CopperSmith. They are very easy to both operate and install, and are activated by a pop-up mechanism by simply pressing down on the drain cover.

Twist and Turn

Also known as a lift and turn, these feature a small nob to manually lift the drain cover. These are easy to use and install. They are opened and closed by pressing down on the drain cover and “twisting” it.

Strainer Drain

Drains with strainers are used commonly in bar sinks or workstation sinks that don’t have a function for closing. The grid on the drain cover allows water to flow easily through the drain while blocking larger items such as food and crumbs.

Chain & Plug

chain and plug drains are manually operated by plugging and removing the drain’s stopper. Most chain & plus drains come with a small basket or “crumb cup” to keep unwanted items or food from falling into the drain.

BENEFITS

Each drain has various benefits depending on the style of sink you get. Strainer drinks may be more popular for bar or workstation sinks. The material of your drain is important to prevent rust or tarnish. Chrome or nickel are well-liked drains for their ability to prevent these issues.

 

SIZE

Sizing is important and will depend on the measurements between one side of the drain opening in your sink to the other side. These are on average about 3 ½” wide. But can range anywhere from 1 ½” to 4”. Bar sinks and prep sinks tend to have smaller drains, while the commercial kitchen and larger sinks have larger drains. CopperSmith offers various sizes for any size or style of sink, as well as custom sizing drains if you need something tailored to your specific needs.

FUNCTION

Part of any practical plumbing system drains are not only important to rid of water and food scraps from your sink. They also play a part in the drainage system that keeps toxic gases from rising and coming through your sink. Drains are more of a necessary component to a sink, rather than an accessory. Although CopperSmith offers a number of kinds to make you feel like you have some power in picking out and customizing this sink necessity.

CLEANLINESS

Drains tend to be pretty easy to clean if they are made well and of high quality. Boiling water, baking soda, and vinegar are all great alternatives and cleaning solutions to give your drain a thorough clean.  Most drains at CopperSmith can be removed for easier cleaning and full access to the inner parts of your drain system.

AFFORDABILITY

Coppersmith drains are made for a variety of budgets and in general, tend to be pretty affordable. Our drains may be more expensive than the one you will find at a local store, but again the quality can’t be beaten. Investing in a good drainage system is essential for preventing potential damage or future repairs to your new sink.

DURABILITY

One of the guiding factors of the durability level of your drain is the material it is made out of. Copper, chrome, and high-grade stainless steel are some of the most durable materials that CopperSmith molds down from recyclable materials, making them a great choice for sustainability as well.

On the other hand, commercial sinks or larger kitchen sinks may require fancier drain systems with more features. Although these can be pricier and tend to be more difficult to install. Larger drains with more features that are built for the kitchen may have better underlying mechanisms which help to filter out food, crumbs, or other dirt.
