The Viva Sanitary Basket Strainer Sink Waste is an essential plumbing component for homeowners and contractors looking to maintain an efficient kitchen sink drainage system. Designed specifically for standard sinks without an overflow, this unit prevents food waste from clogging pipes, saving users from frequent plumbing maintenance. While its robust design ensures long-term reliability, it is important to note that this model is strictly for non-overflow sink configurations, so verify your existing sink's plumbing setup before installation.

Rinse the strainer after use and dry it periodically with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
Yes, a 41mm long fixing screw is included with the product.
It is recommended to clear the strainer daily after cooking or washing dishes to maintain optimal drainage flow.
Check that the fixing screw is tightened sufficiently and ensure that the rubber gaskets are correctly aligned and not pinched.
Inspect the center post for any trapped debris or lime scale buildup. Clean the area with a mild descaling solution.
Remove the basket strainer and clear any food debris caught in the mesh. If the issue persists, check the pipework below for further blockages.
Before beginning installation, ensure your sink is of the non-overflow variety. Align the waste unit with the sink hole and apply plumber's putty or a silicone gasket if recommended for your sink material. Insert the 41mm fixing screw through the center of the basket strainer and tighten it into the waste body until secure. Ensure the rubber seals are positioned correctly to prevent leaking. Test the seal by filling the sink halfway with water and observing the area underneath for moisture.
Regular maintenance is essential for longevity. Remove the basket daily to clear trapped food scraps. Use a non-abrasive sponge and mild dish detergent to clean the stainless steel surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals or steel wool, as these can dull the finish or damage the metal surface over time.
