FAQs
Is the tap included with the basin?
No, the tap and waste fittings are not included with the Ideal Standard i. life basin and semi-pedestal. These must be purchased separately.
What type of tap should I use?
This basin is designed for a single mixer tap, which combines hot and cold water controls into one spout. Ensure it is compatible with standard basin installation.
What is the warranty period for this basin?
The product comes with a manufacturer's lifetime guarantee, offering long-term peace of mind.
How do I clean the basin?
Clean the basin using a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners and scouring pads to protect the white finish.
What are the dimensions of the basin?
The basin has a width of 60cm. Specific depth and height dimensions can be found in the technical specifications or product diagrams.
Do I need special tools for installation?
Standard plumbing tools and a drill for wall mounting are typically required. Ensure you have the correct wall fixings for your specific wall type, as these are not usually included.
Can the semi-pedestal be removed if needed?
Yes, the semi-pedestal is designed to be attached after the basin is mounted, allowing for installation and removal if necessary for maintenance or cleaning access, although it's generally intended to stay in place.
Troubleshooting
Basin is not draining properly.
Check the basin waste for blockages. Ensure the plug and chain mechanism (if applicable) is not obstructing the flow. Verify the waste pipe is not clogged.
Tap is leaking.
Check the tightness of the tap connections to the water supply and the basin. The internal cartridge of the tap may need replacing if the leak persists.
Semi-pedestal feels loose.
Ensure the semi-pedestal is correctly and securely attached to the wall and/or basin. Re-tighten fixings as necessary, using appropriate wall anchors if needed.
Water splashes excessively when used.
Ensure the tap is positioned correctly over the basin outlet. Consider adjusting the flow rate or pressure of the tap, or installing a flow aerator if available for your tap.
