FAQs

What is SILGRANIT PuraDur?

SILGRANIT PuraDur is a patented granite composite material developed by BLANCO. It is known for its exceptional durability, resistance to scratches, heat, stains, and acids, making it ideal for kitchen sinks.

Can I install this sink myself?

This sink is designed for undermount installation, which typically requires precise cutting of the countertop and professional fitting for a watertight seal. While DIY is possible for experienced individuals, professional installation is generally recommended.

What size base cabinet is required?

The BLANCO Subline 430/270-U sink requires a minimum base cabinet width of 80 cm.

How do I clean the grey SILGRANIT finish?

Clean daily with mild dish soap, water, and a soft cloth or sponge. For tougher stains, use a non-abrasive household cleaner or a specialized SILGRANIT cleaner. Rinse thoroughly and dry.

Is this sink heat-resistant?

Yes, SILGRANIT PuraDur is heat-resistant up to a certain temperature (typically around 280°C or 536°F). However, it's advisable to use trivets for extremely hot cookware to prolong the sink's pristine appearance.

Can I install a garbage disposal with this sink?

Yes, this sink is compatible with most standard garbage disposals. Ensure the disposal unit fits within the cabinet space and is installed according to its manufacturer's instructions.

What are the dimensions of the two bowls?

The sink features a dual-bowl design with dimensions of 430 mm for the larger bowl and 270 mm for the smaller bowl. The overall bowl depth for both is 200 mm.

Troubleshooting

Sink appears dull or has light scratches

Use a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for SILGRANIT or a soft scrub pad with mild dish soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid abrasive materials.

Water is not draining properly

Check the sink trap and drainpipe for any blockages. Ensure the garbage disposal (if installed) is properly turned on and clear. Verify that the sink's slope is adequate for drainage.

Discoloration on the sink surface

Identify the source of the discoloration. For minor stains, try a mild cleaner. For metallic streaks from pots and pans, use a cleaner like Bar Keepers Friend (ensure it's suitable for granite composite) or a specialized SILGRANIT cleaner. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Difficulty installing faucet or accessories

Ensure you are using the correct tools and following the manufacturer's instructions for the faucet or accessory. For undermount sinks, precise measurements and alignment are critical during installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This sink is designed for undermount installation. Ensure your countertop material is suitable for undermount applications (e.g., granite, quartz, solid surface). Professional installation is recommended to ensure a secure and watertight fit. The sink requires an 80 cm base cabinet width. Verify cabinet dimensions and ensure adequate space for plumbing and the sink's overall footprint.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with standard kitchen drains and garbage disposals.
  • Requires a countertop material that can support an undermount sink.
  • Designed for base cabinets of 80 cm width.

Care:

To maintain the sink's appearance:

  1. Daily Cleaning: Wipe the sink with a soft, damp cloth or sponge and mild dish soap. Rinse thoroughly with water.
  2. Tough Stains: For stubborn stains or hard water marks, use a non-abrasive household cleaner or a specialized SILGRANIT cleaner. Apply the cleaner with a soft cloth and rub gently. Rinse well.
  3. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive scouring pads, steel wool, or harsh chemical cleaners (like oven cleaners or drain unblockers) as they can damage the SILGRANIT surface.
  4. Drying: For best results and to prevent water spots, dry the sink with a soft cloth after cleaning.
