FAQs

What type of waste fitting do I need for this basin?

You will need an unslotted waste fitting, as this basin does not have an overflow hole.

Can I install this basin on any type of countertop?

Yes, it is suitable for most solid, water-resistant countertops and worktops. Ensure the countertop is strong enough to support the basin and any water weight.

Does the basin come with a tap?

No, taps and wastes are sold separately. You will need to purchase these in addition to the basin.

How do I clean the Matt Black finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.

What are the dimensions of the basin?

The basin measures 365mm in width, 120mm in height, and 235mm in depth.

What is the weight of the basin?

The product weight is 6 KG.

What is the manufacturer's guarantee period?

The basin comes with a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Basin is unstable after installation

Check that the basin is properly seated on the countertop and that any adhesive or mounting hardware is securely fastened. Ensure the countertop itself is level and stable.

Water pools in the basin

Verify that the unslotted waste is correctly installed and the drainage pipe is not blocked. Ensure the basin is installed level, with a slight fall towards the waste outlet.

Matt finish appears discolored

Clean the basin using only mild, non-abrasive cleaners recommended for matte finishes. Avoid aggressive scrubbing or chemical treatments.

Water splashes over the sides

Consider installing a tap with a lower flow rate or a spout with a gentler stream. Ensure the basin is not overfilled, especially given the lack of an overflow.
