Troubleshooting

Basin is not draining properly.

Check the free-flow waste for any obstructions. Ensure the waste pipe and trap are clear of blockages. Verify that the waste assembly is correctly installed and sealed.

Water is leaking from the waste connection.

Tighten the waste fitting securely. Check the seals and washers for wear or damage and replace if necessary. Ensure plumber's putty or sealant is correctly applied during installation.

The brushed brass finish appears dull or discolored.

Clean the basin using a mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners. If discoloration persists, use a specialized non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner designed for brass finishes, following instructions carefully. Ensure the basin is dried thoroughly after cleaning.

Scratches are visible on the basin surface.

Minor scratches on stainless steel can sometimes be buffed out using a fine-grit polishing compound specifically for stainless steel. Always test in an inconspicuous area first. For deeper scratches, professional refinishing may be required.
