Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is BIO COMPOSITE material?

BIO COMPOSITE is an advanced material engineered for kitchen sinks, offering superior strength, heat resistance, and durability compared to traditional granite or stainless steel. It is manufactured using compression technology for enhanced performance.

Is the mixer tap included?

Yes, the Liquida Kavl860Bl sink package includes the EPO11MB matt black mixer tap with a concealed pull-out spout.

Can I place hot pans directly onto the sink?

The BIO COMPOSITE material offers high heat resistance. However, for longevity, it is generally advised to use trivets or heat pads for extremely hot items, as per standard kitchen practices.

What are the overall dimensions of the sink?

The sink has overall dimensions of Length 860mm x Depth 500mm.

How do I maintain the matte black finish?

Clean regularly with a soft damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or pads that could scratch or dull the finish. For tougher stains, use a cleaner specifically recommended for composite sinks.

What is the minimum cabinet size required?

A minimum base unit width of 450mm is required to install this sink.

Is the tap reversible?

The product description does not specify tap reversibility. However, the sink itself is a single bowl and does not have a reversible drainer position.

Troubleshooting

Tap water pressure is low

Check that the pull-out hose is not kinked. Unscrew the aerator (at the tip of the spout) and check for blockages. Clean the aerator if necessary.

Sink surface has a mark or stain

Try a mild, non-abrasive cleaner designed for composite materials. Follow product instructions carefully. Avoid abrasive scrubbing pads.

Water is not draining effectively

Ensure the waste trap is not blocked. Check that the overflow is clear. For new installations, verify the sink is level.

Tap lever feels stiff

The ceramic cartridge may need lubrication or replacement. This is a job for a qualified professional.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional durability due to advanced BIO COMPOSITE material.
  • High heat resistance suitable for busy kitchens.
  • Stylish matte black finish for a modern aesthetic.
  • Integrated pull-out tap adds significant functionality.
  • Sustainable material choice.
  • Long-lasting colour stability prevents fading.

Cons

  • May require specific cleaning products due to the composite material.
  • Requires a minimum base unit of 450mm.
  • Non-reversible drainer (if applicable, though not specified, single bowl sinks often have fixed drainer positions).

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility:

  • Minimum Base Unit: Requires a minimum cabinet width of 450mm.
  • Worktop Cut-out: The sink requires a precise cut-out of 832mm x 472mm.
  • Plumbing: Standard kitchen plumbing connections will be required. Ensure compatibility with your existing waste disposal system if applicable.

Setup:

Installation should ideally be performed by a qualified plumber or experienced DIYer. Ensure the worktop is prepared according to the cut-out dimensions. The sink is typically secured from underneath using the provided clips. The mixer tap installation will follow standard procedures, connecting to hot and cold water supplies.

Care:

  • Daily Cleaning: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Mild dish soap can be used for everyday grime.
  • Stubborn Stains: For tougher marks, use a non-abrasive cleaner specifically recommended for composite or granite sinks. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or steel wool, as these can damage the finish.
  • Tap Maintenance: Periodically check the pull-out hose for kinks. Clean the spout aerator if water flow becomes irregular.
  • Avoid: Do not use bleach or drain unblockers containing harsh chemicals directly in the sink, as they may affect the material's integrity and colour.
