How to install your bathtub stopper yourself | Step-by-step guide

Replacing a bathtub stopper might seem like a challenging task, but with the right tools and a clear guide, it’s a breeze. In this blog, we walk you through the process step by step, so you can have a new, perfectly functioning bathtub plug installed in no time.

Step 1. Remove the old stopper
Before installing the new stopper, you need to remove the old one. Start by loosening the screw in the center. If the stopper is stuck, use pliers to gently pull it out.

Step 2. Clean the drain
With the old stopper removed, it's important to thoroughly clean the drain. Remove any residue or limescale so the new stopper can form a perfect seal.

Step 3. Place the new stopper
Take your new Minismus universal bathtub stopper and place it into the drain opening. With its robust 72 mm diameter, this stopper fits perfectly in most standard bathtubs. Ensure that the rubber seal fits snugly against the drain for a watertight seal.

Step 4. Secure the stopper
Screw the stopper in tightly using the included screw. The Minismus bathtub stopper is designed for easy installation without the need for extra tools. Check to make sure the stopper is firmly in place and does not wobble.

Step 5. Test the seal
Fill the bathtub with water to check if the stopper seals properly. The dual rubber protection of the Minismus stopper ensures a leak-proof seal, so you can enjoy a worry-free bath.

With these simple steps, you can quickly replace your bathtub stopper and get back to relaxing in your bath.
