FAQs

What materials are included with the basin?

The package includes the RAK Ingot Square Countertop Basin and a free-flow waste fitting. The tap and bottle trap are sold separately.

Does this basin have an overflow?

No, this basin does not feature an overflow. Care should be taken to avoid overfilling.

What is the warranty period for this basin?

The RAK Ceramics INGOT basin is backed by a 2-year manufacturer's warranty.

What are the exact dimensions of the basin?

The basin measures 400mm in width, 400mm in depth, and 100mm in height.

How do I clean the brushed brass finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.

Can I use any type of tap with this basin?

You can use most standard basin taps, but ensure the spout reach is appropriate for the basin's dimensions. Wall-mounted taps are also an option.

Is installation complicated?

Installation involves securing the basin to a countertop and connecting the waste. While manageable for DIYers with plumbing experience, professional installation is recommended for optimal results.

Troubleshooting

Basin leaks at the waste connection.

Ensure the waste fitting is securely tightened and that any supplied seals or plumber's putty are correctly applied. Check for any cracks in the waste pipe connection.

Water drains slowly.

The free-flow waste may be partially blocked. Clean any debris from the waste outlet. Check the connected bottle trap and main waste pipe for obstructions.

Finish appears dull or discolored.

This may be due to harsh cleaning agents. Use only a soft cloth and mild soap solution. For discoloration, gentle polishing with a brass cleaner specifically designed for brushed finishes might help, but test in an inconspicuous area first.

Tap alignment is difficult.

Measure the distance from the basin's waste to the intended tap position carefully. Ensure your chosen tap's spout reach is adequate and consider tap placement options (e.g., wall-mounted vs. deck-mounted).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a countertop basin, designed to sit on top of a vanity unit or counter. Ensure the countertop is strong enough to support the basin's weight and is properly sealed. Installation typically involves securing the basin to the countertop and connecting the waste fitting to your existing plumbing. The tap will need to be mounted either on the countertop or the wall, depending on your chosen tap design.

Compatibility: The basin uses a standard waste fitting, compatible with most plumbing systems. It requires a tap with a suitable reach and height for comfortable use. As noted, a separate bottle trap is recommended for waste pipe connection. Ensure your chosen tap does not have an overflow if the basin's lack of an overflow is a concern.

Care: To maintain the brushed brass finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the surface. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
