Record 1 2012-07-31

English

Subject field(s)
  • Taps and Plumbing Accessories
CONT

A person can only guess at the reason, but possibly it is because [a pop-out plug] is lower in cost when compared to a mechanical stop and also that it does not restrict the flow as much as other types.

CONT

Remove excess putty from around the fittings and install a chain and plug or mechanical waste.

OBS

mechanical waste: term officially approved by the Lexicon Project Committee (New Brunswick).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Robinetterie et accessoires
CONT

Ce type de bonde, à bouchon en caoutchouc, est le plus vendu, peut-être parce qu'il est beaucoup moins cher qu'un autre type à obturateur mécanique, et aussi parce qu'il ne restreint pas l'écoulement autant que les autres modèles disponibles.

OBS

bonde mécanique : terme uniformisé par le Comité du projet de lexiques (Nouveau-Brunswick).
