FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the basin and semi-pedestal?
The basin dimensions are H:485.0 x W:550.0 x D:440.0 mm. The semi-pedestal is designed to complement these dimensions for a cohesive look and support.
Does this basin come with an overflow?
The product description does not explicitly state the presence of an overflow. It is recommended to check the product imagery or consult the manufacturer's detailed specifications if an overflow is a critical requirement. If it does not have an overflow, an unslotted waste must be used.
What type of tap should I use?
This basin features one tap hole, meaning it is designed for a single-hole mixer tap. You can choose any standard mixer tap that fits this configuration.
Is the tap and waste included with the basin?
No, the tap and waste are not included with the Ideal Standard i. life basin and semi-pedestal. These must be purchased separately.
What is the material of the basin?
The basin is made from durable and high-quality vitreous china.
What kind of warranty does this product have?
Ideal Standard offers a lifetime manufacturer's guarantee on this product, subject to their terms and conditions.
Can the semi-pedestal be removed if I prefer a wall-hung look?
The semi-pedestal is designed to be an integral part of the product's aesthetic and support system. While it attaches to the basin, its removal might affect the overall stability and intended look. It is designed to be used as a complete unit.
Troubleshooting
Basin is unstable after installation.
Ensure all wall fixings are tightened securely. Verify that the semi-pedestal is correctly seated and supporting the basin as intended. Check for any obstructions preventing the pedestal from making proper contact with the wall or floor.
Tap or waste is leaking.
Check all connections for the tap and waste fittings. Ensure rubber seals and washers are correctly positioned and not damaged. Tighten fittings firmly but avoid overtightening, which could damage threads or seals.
Water does not drain effectively.
Check the basin waste for any obstructions such as hair or soap residue. Ensure the waste plug is sealing correctly. If your basin has an overflow, check that it is clear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Wall Mounting: The basin requires secure fixing to the wall. Ensure you use appropriate wall fixings for your wall type (e.g., plasterboard, brick).
- Semi-Pedestal Installation: The semi-pedestal typically attaches to the basin and rests against the wall for support. Follow the manufacturer's specific instructions for securing it.
- Tap and Waste Installation: Install your chosen single-hole tap and a compatible waste fitting (not included) according to their respective instructions.
Compatibility:
- Tap: Compatible with any standard single-hole mixer tap. Ensure the tap's spout reach is appropriate for the 55cm basin width.
- Waste: Requires a standard unslotted basin waste for basins without an overflow, or a slotted basin waste if an overflow is present and you intend to use it (check basin for overflow hole).
- Plumbing: Standard basin plumbing connections will be required.
Care:
- Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap solution.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the vitreous china surface.
- Wipe dry with a clean cloth after cleaning to prevent water spots.
