FAQs
What makes the BIO COMPOSITE material stronger than granite or steel?
The BIO COMPOSITE material is manufactured using advanced compression technology, which creates a denser, more uniform structure that offers superior resilience against impact, heat, and scratches compared to traditional granite or stainless steel.
Is the matte black finish prone to fading?
No, the BIO COMPOSITE material is designed for long-term colour stability, meaning the matte black finish is highly resistant to fading from UV light or daily use.
How do I clean the pull-out tap spout?
The spout can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. For mineral deposits, a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water can be gently applied, followed by a thorough rinse and drying.
What is the minimum size of the base cabinet required?
The sink requires a minimum base unit width of 450mm to ensure proper installation and support.
Can I install a waste disposal unit with this sink?
While not explicitly stated, most single bowl composite sinks are compatible with standard waste disposal units. Please check the specific dimensions and requirements of your chosen waste disposal unit.
What is the warranty period for this sink and tap set?
Please refer to the product documentation or the retailer for specific warranty information, as it can vary.
Troubleshooting
Sink appears dull or has minor stains
Gently clean with a mild, non-abrasive detergent and a soft cloth. For persistent stains, try a paste of baking soda and water, then rinse thoroughly.
Tap water pressure is low
Check that the pull-out hose is not kinked. Unscrew the aerator at the end of the spout and clean any debris. Ensure your main water supply is adequate.
Tap is dripping
This may indicate a worn cartridge or a loose connection. Consult the tap's specific manual or contact customer support for assistance.
Sink has minor scratches
The BIO COMPOSITE material is highly resistant, but if minor surface marks appear, try cleaning with a non-abrasive cleaner. For deeper scratches, professional advice may be needed.
