FAQs

What type of taps are compatible with this basin?

This basin has two tap holes and is compatible with standard basin pillar taps or mixer taps designed for a two-hole installation. You will need to select and purchase these separately.

Is the waste fitting included?

No, the basin waste fitting is sold separately. You will need to choose a waste that is compatible with the basin's overflow and your plumbing system.

How do I clean the vitreous china surface?

Clean the basin using a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive soap or detergent. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth to maintain the glossy finish.

What are the benefits of a comfort height basin?

A comfort height basin is taller than a standard basin, making it more ergonomic and accessible. It reduces the need to bend down significantly, which is beneficial for taller individuals or those with back issues or mobility limitations.

Can this basin be installed without the pedestal?

While the basin is designed to be used with its matching pedestal for support and aesthetic continuity, it is technically possible to wall-mount it using appropriate brackets if space is a constraint. However, this is not the intended installation method.

What is the overall height of the basin with the pedestal?

The overall height of the basin when fitted with the comfort height pedestal is 955mm.

Is the gloss white finish prone to staining?

The high-quality vitreous china surface with a gloss white finish is generally resistant to staining. Regular cleaning with mild detergents should prevent most common stains.

Troubleshooting

Water leaks from tap base or around handles.

Ensure tap bases are securely seated and any provided seals or washers are intact. Tighten fixing nuts gently. If leaking persists, consider replacing internal tap seals.

Basin does not drain properly.

Check the basin waste for blockages. Remove and clean the waste trap and overflow pipe. Ensure the waste is correctly installed and connected to the drain.

Pedestal feels unstable.

Verify that the pedestal is correctly seated under the basin and is stable on the floor. Ensure the basin itself is securely fixed to the wall. Professional installation may be required if instability persists.

Surface marks or scratches appear.

For light marks, try a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, consult a professional or consider a surface repair kit designed for ceramic or vitreous china.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure you have chosen compatible basin pillar taps and a suitable waste fitting (sold separately).
  2. The basin and pedestal require secure mounting to the wall and floor, respectively. Professional plumbing and installation are recommended.
  3. Connect water supply lines to the chosen taps and the waste outlet to your drainage system.

Compatibility:

  • Taps: Compatible with standard UK basin pillar taps or mixer taps that have a 2 tap hole configuration.
  • Waste: Requires a standard basin waste fitting (e.g., slotted or unslotted, depending on basin overflow and cistern).
  • Plumbing: Standard UK plumbing connections apply.

Care:

  • Clean the basin regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals, scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the vitreous china surface.
  • Wipe dry after cleaning to prevent water spots.
  • Periodically check plumbing connections for leaks.
