Tiny Trap Plans

The advantages of this trap are that it can be configured as a one stage, two stage or three stage trap and that the "smooth" magnetic field seems to produce a better output water. The disadvantages are that it requires fairly high water pressure and it is not easily adjustable like the Winter Sink Trap.

There is one problem with the materials for this trap. It seems that the PVC fitting companies are moving away from the tapered bushing which makes up the basic body of the trap. As there is no substitute for this part it might be good to stock up on some of these soon. I found lots of them at Home Depot and Lowes in the Seattle area. I am checking out another manufacturer for these parts.

I have found two sources for the ring magnets for this trap. One source is in the Seattle area and is reluctant to sell to individuals. Here is the contact information for this supplier:

Armstrong Magnetics, Inc.
(253) 887-9094
3722 Auburn Way N
Auburn WA

These ring magnets have an inside diameter of 2.3 inches and fit around most 1.5 inch couplers with a little slop.

The other magnet supplier that I have found has magnets which are 2.24 inches inside and they fit snugly on some couplers and do not fit other couplers. I prefer these magnets because they are a bit cheaper and the tight fit is generally helpful. Here is the contact information for this supplier:

The Magnet Source
Master Magnetics, Inc.
607 South Gilbert Street
Castle Rock, Colorado 80104
888-293-9399 Ext. 122
magsales@magnetsource.com
http://www.magnetsource.com

The part number for this magnet is CR525CN. They are 3/4 inch thick and you will need two for each trap. The price breakdown is as follows:
 

1 piece
3 pieces
10 pieces
25 pieces
50 pieces
100 pieces
$10.80
$10.00
$9.20
$8.50
$8.00
$7.00

The cost of the similar magnets from Armstrong Magnetics is a bit higher.
 
 




This trap will work great as a second stage trap for the Winter Sink Trap design. Several of them can also be used together in a multiple stage trap configuration. I have three of these in my bathtub right now with a three stage design which produces the best trap water I have ever had. I can always feel the effects of the water  when I drink a couple of glasses fresh from the trap.

Images of the three stage trap design can be found at:

These are good sized pictures and will take a while to load.
