Fireclay is a type of ceramic that is vitreous (glass-like) when fired at high temperatures. It is known for its durability, resistance to heat and stains, and smooth, non-porous finish, making it ideal for kitchen sinks.
You will need a basket strainer waste with an overflow, which is not included with the sink. It connects to standard 1.5-inch plumbing.
No, this sink is specifically designed for undermount installation only, meaning it is fitted beneath the countertop.
Use a soft, damp cloth with mild dish soap. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
The sink comes with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee against manufacturing defects.
While fireclay is durable, like any ceramic material, it can chip if a very heavy object is dropped directly onto it with significant force. Proper care and avoiding such impacts will maintain its finish.
The external dimensions are 460mm in width and 460mm in depth, with a height (bowl depth) of 191mm.
Check the basket strainer waste and plumbing trap for any blockages. Ensure the overflow is clear.
The seal around the overflow fitting may be compromised or the overflow pipe may be partially blocked. Inspect and clean as necessary.
Minor surface marks can often be buffed out with a non-abrasive cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water. Avoid using abrasive pads.
Ensure you are using mild cleaning agents and avoiding harsh chemicals. Most discoloration can be removed with appropriate gentle cleaners.
Setup:
This sink is designed for undermount installation, which requires professional fitting into a cutout in your countertop. Ensure the countertop material is suitable for undermount sinks (e.g., granite, quartz, solid surface). The sink features one pre-drilled overflow hole; ensure your plumbing setup accounts for this.
Compatibility:
Care:
Clean the sink regularly using a soft, damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the non-porous glaze. For stubborn marks, a paste of baking soda and water can be used gently. Wipe dry after cleaning to maintain the finish.
