can these be installed so the trap door opens the other way as the hose wont sit on it?

Yes you can but that should really be done at time of rough in. You just need to make sure the 120v leads are routed such they don't get pinched when you put the cover on. You can physically do it though.

Yes, I have installed them both ways, but which way you install them depends on which way the pipe in the wall connects to the inlet. If the pipe comes from below, you install the inlet so the trap door opens downward. If the pipe comes from above, you install the inlet so the trap door opens upward. Having the hose sit on the trap door doesn't seem to be a problem.

No I do not believe so I used one remodeling an old pop up camper and purchased a water regulator to go between the water hose and the flange, haven't had any problems and the way I have mine plumbed it drains with gravity. Hope this helps

Hi Christa, Unfortunately no trap door, you do have to undress. Live To Play

There is no reason I can see why you can't. Maybe they won' match up with the other side, but who cares they come two to a package. Hope this helps. Easy to install push thru and snap the other end on.

The flanges are but the handles aren't. The hinges for the door are built into the handles. You could take the flanges off and and put some feet on the side that would be the bottom and it would work. Just some cheapo Depot rubber feet would be fine. That or just take the front door off too...

Hey Kevin, I am a plumber and I don't see why you could not install one or the other. I would prefer not to have a mechanical joint if not necessary. If needed at a later date, I would simply cut the pipe and install a coupling at that time. Hope this helps

No sure, but think it can be installed either way. Our door swings in to the left. Hope this helps.

Yes, provided there is a place where they can be mounted in the cabinet so as to contact the door within an inch to two of the hinge axis...hard to describe in text! The cylinder is mounted on the frame of the door. As the door closes, the plunger, which protrudes from the cylinder, comes into contact with the door itself and cushions the close. The door must have some kind of at least moderate closing force from a spring to work.Mine have been in use fora number of cabinet doors for several years and are easy to install and work fine.

I don't see how they could. the spring shuts the flaps completely against a rubber gasket and unless the spiders are on steroids in your neighborhood don't worry. I have two of these dampers installed in a Y duct configuration (two runs come together to share one exhaust port thru roof) and I have had no spiders coming in this way. I am convinced spiders can go down the vent stacks for the drain lines and pop thru the traps and get in that way. so I put good quality mesh over the vent stack and secured with zip ties. no more spiders swimming through the traps and marauding in the bathrooms

Yes. You may need a coupler to connect different size hoses, which is what we did.

A dogs paw is more likely not to get caught in these unlike a clamp style trap. There paw would have to go all the way down in the cylinder which is almost impossible.

No just raise them and place directly on the toilet and tighten in place. I had a problem with mine in that it would stay securely tightenen

Yes they would work you may have to bend one side open alittle bit more to fit on the rod.

None that I know of. The only way is to change the hose. That is what I did.

It has been a few years since I installed them (2),however I believe they are designed to go both ways with slightinstall steps for each direction.They worked very well and each door had a different slide direction and I do not rememberany issues putting them in.I have sold the house they were installed in,in 2013.

Yes, it can be installed either direction. Just have to move the drain fitting to whichever side is down.

I ended up having a plumber come and install. You may need a different size p-trap depending on the size of the current pipes you have. The circular bushing needs to go between the vessel and the counter, not in the sink. Once installed they look and work great.
