Product Information

Full details

The Hudson Reed Richmond pedestal basin is designed for homeowners seeking a classic, early Edwardian aesthetic for their bathroom. Its key benefit is the combination of a soft, angular square bowl with a full pedestal, offering both style and adequate coverage for plumbing. A caveat is its unsuitability for commercial use and the need for separate purchase of taps, fixings, and waste.

FAQs

What type of waste do I need for this basin?

This basin requires a 'slotted' waste due to the presence of an integrated overflow hole.

Can I use a standard monobloc tap with this basin?

No, this basin has two tap holes designed for widespread taps (requiring two separate hot and cold taps). A monobloc tap will not fit.

What is included with the basin?

The product includes the basin, the full pedestal, and an overflow fitting. Taps, fixings, and a waste are not included.

What is the guarantee period?

Hudson Reed offers a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee against manufacturing defects. This excludes damage from poor installation, accidental damage, improper use, or normal wear. Working parts are covered for 6 months.

Is this basin suitable for a small bathroom?

While it has a full pedestal, the basin itself can be wall-hung to save floor space if needed, making it adaptable. However, its overall dimensions should be checked against the available space.

How do I clean the vitreous china surface?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can this basin be used in a commercial setting like a restaurant?

No, this basin is explicitly stated as unsuitable for commercial use.

Troubleshooting

Basin appears unstable after installation

Ensure all wall fixings (if wall-hung) or pedestal securing points are tightened correctly. For pedestal installations, verify the pedestal is firmly seated and potentially secured to the wall.

Water leaking from tap holes or waste outlet

Check that tap bases and the waste fitting are sealed correctly with appropriate plumber's putty or silicone sealant. Ensure the basin's threaded holes are not damaged.

Overflow is not functioning effectively

Confirm that a *slotted waste* is installed, as this is required for the overflow to drain properly. Check for any blockages in the overflow channel or the waste pipe.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant, traditional design complements period bathrooms.
  • Durable vitreous china construction ensures a long lifespan.
  • Flexible installation options (pedestal or wall-hung).
  • Standard two-tap-hole configuration is widely compatible.
  • Full pedestal hides plumbing for a tidy appearance.

Cons

  • Not suitable for commercial installations.
  • Taps, fixings, and slotted waste must be purchased separately.
  • Requires a specific slotted waste due to the overflow.
  • Heavy product (62.5 kg) may require assistance for installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Installation Type: Decide between pedestal or wall-hung installation.
  2. Pedestal Installation: Secure the pedestal to the floor and wall if required for stability. Mount the basin onto the pedestal, ensuring a snug fit.
  3. Wall-Hung Installation: Use appropriate wall fixings (not included) to securely mount the basin. Ensure the chosen height is comfortable for use.
  4. Tap & Waste Fitting: Install your chosen taps into the two pre-drilled holes. Fit a slotted waste (not included) into the basin's waste outlet.
  5. Plumbing Connections: Connect the water supply to the taps and the waste pipe to the slotted waste fitting.

Compatibility:

  • Requires a slotted waste due to the integrated overflow.
  • Compatible with widespread faucets (requiring two tap holes).
  • Suitable for standard basin plumbing connections.
  • *Not suitable for commercial environments*.

Care:

  • Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, which can damage the vitreous china surface.
  • Wipe dry with a clean cloth after cleaning to prevent water spots.
