The role of the shower siphon in the shower area
The basic role of a shower siphon is to ensure proper drainage of water to the water and sewage system. Its efficiency determines whether the water will drain away continuously or start to collect in the shower tray and escape from the shower cabin. The second function of siphons is to prevent unpleasant odours in the bathroom. Thanks to the small amount of water in the structure, gases responsible for the odour do not escape from the sewage system. The shower siphon has another very important task: it prevents the pipes from becoming clogged, e.g. with hair, pet fur, cosmetic residues, etc. It stops impurities. It is also worth mentioning the decorative values, which are not so much the siphon as the drain cover - an element that co-creates the shower drain set.
What should you pay attention to when choosing a shower siphon?
When choosing a shower siphon, you should pay attention to:
- solidity of materials, coatings and structures,
- adaptation to the installation situation in the bathroom,
- capacity,
- contents of the set,
- warranty period,
- availability of spare parts,
- ease of cleaning.

The Geberit shower siphon is available in a set with a solid drain cover, finished in glossy chrome, matt chrome, gold or white. The cover has no ribs underneath, so hair does not get tangled in it. A special comb placed under the cover is used to retain all dirt. It can be cleaned in one simple movement. In the case of the Geberit brand, the shower siphon is always cleaned from the top. The removable insert allows for precise removal of smaller dirt. The collar made of acid-resistant stainless steel ensures excellent durability. The leveling of unevenness of the shower opening, and thus full water tightness, is guaranteed by the double-sided construction of the seal. The drain capacity is up to 40% higher than required by the standard. The low height of the siphon facilitates use even in difficult assembly situations. Geberit shower siphons can serve for years.
