Preparing the materials needed

Here are some materials that you will need to clean your Lauxes grate:

  • Gloves
  • Bucket
  • Soft bristle brush or nylon cloth
  • Soap
  • Warm water
  • Towel

Step 1: Remove the grate

The first step in cleaning your Lauxes grate is to remove it from the drain. This can be easily done by using the roll out feature from our NXT Range or by grabbing a blunt lever if your grate is from our SGF Range. Make sure to wear gloves to protect your hands.

Step 2: Use warm water and a soft bristle brush to remove dirt

Once the grate has been removed, place it in a bucket filled with warm water. You may try adding a mild soap that can be used to clean the grate. Let the grate soak for at least 30 minutes to allow the soap to break down any dirt or debris. Then, use a soft bristle brush (or a nylon cloth) to remove any remaining dirt or debris. Make sure to scrub both sides of the grate thoroughly to ensure that it is clean.

Step 3: Rinse the grate

Once the grate has been scrubbed, rinse it with water to remove any remaining soap. Make sure to rinse both sides of the grate thoroughly to ensure that there is no residue left behind.

Step 4: Dry the grate

After rinsing the grate, use a towel to dry it off. Make sure to dry both sides of the grate thoroughly. Once the grate is dry, it can be placed back in the drain.
