FAQs

What is the main purpose of this kit?

This kit provides two complete sink waste and overflow assemblies for a double-bowl kitchen sink, ensuring effective drainage and overflow management for both basins.

Can this kit be used for a single bowl sink?

While the kit contains two sets of components, it is designed and intended for double-bowl sinks. You would only use one set for a single bowl sink.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 6-month manufacturer's guarantee against manufacturing defects. This guarantee has specific exclusions, so please refer to the product documentation for details.

What material is the overflow cover plate made of?

The square overflow cover plate is made from gold-plated brass.

How thick can the sink be to install this waste kit?

The included bolts are 55mm long, which accommodates sinks with a thickness of up to 32mm.

What size is the waste outlet connection?

The waste outlet conforms to the 1 1/2 inch British Standard piping specification.

Is this kit suitable for a Belfast sink?

Yes, the kit is specifically mentioned as suitable for Butler and Belfast sinks due to its ability to fit thicker sink materials.

Troubleshooting

Sink is leaking around the waste fitting.

Ensure the rubber seals are correctly positioned and that the securing bolts are tightened evenly and firmly. Check for any debris between the seal and the sink surface.

Overflow is not draining effectively.

Verify that the overflow pipe is not kinked or obstructed. Ensure the connection to the waste fitting is secure and that the overflow opening on the sink is clear of debris.

Difficulty connecting waste to existing plumbing.

Confirm that your existing plumbing uses a 1 1/2 inch British Standard connection. Adapters may be required if your plumbing differs.

Overflow cover plate does not sit flush.

Check that the correct overflow opening size is being used and ensure no obstructions are preventing the plate from seating correctly against the sink surface.
