Ensure all connections are securely tightened. Check the condition of any seals or washers and replace if worn. Make sure the correct type of waste fitting is used for the basin's overflow.

Water is not draining effectively.

Check the basin waste for blockages. Remove and clean any debris. Ensure the trap and waste pipe are clear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Tap Installation: The basin features a central tap hole. Install your chosen single-hole basin mixer tap according to the tap manufacturer's instructions. Ensure a secure seal to prevent leaks.
Waste Installation: Fit a suitable basin waste (e.g., a slotted or unslotted waste depending on your overflow configuration) and connect it to your plumbing system.

Compatibility:

Taps: Compatible with standard single-hole basin mixer taps. Ensure the tap's spout reach is suitable for the basin's depth.

Care:

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent.
Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the vitreous china surface.
