FAQs
What is included with the Alpine WC Basin?
The package includes the Alpine ceramic basin only. The vanity unit, tap, and waste fitting are sold separately.
What type of tap should I use?
This basin has a single tap hole, so it is designed for a standard basin mixer tap. This could be a deck-mounted or wall-mounted mixer.
What are the exact dimensions of the basin?
The basin has a width of 450mm. Specific depth and height dimensions can be found in the product's technical specification sheet (if available).
Is this basin suitable for a very small bathroom?
Yes, its 450mm width makes it an excellent choice for small bathrooms, cloakrooms, and ensuites where space is limited.
What is the warranty period for this basin?
The Alpine WC Basin is supplied with a 5-year guarantee for peace of mind.
How do I clean the basin effectively?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Troubleshooting
Basin leaks at the tap hole.
Ensure the tap's base seal is correctly seated and the tap is tightened securely but not over-tightened. Use plumber's putty or silicone sealant if recommended by the tap manufacturer.
Slow draining or blockage.
Check the waste trap for obstructions. Unscrew and clean the trap according to its design. Ensure the basin's waste outlet is clear of debris.
Scratches or dullness on the surface.
For minor scratches, try a ceramic polish specifically designed for sanitaryware. For dullness, ensure only non-abrasive cleaners are used. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Mounting: This basin is designed to be mounted on a compatible vanity unit or directly to the wall using appropriate fixings (sold separately). Ensure the mounting surface is level and capable of supporting the basin's weight when filled with water.
- Tap Installation: A single-hole mixer tap (sold separately) should be installed into the pre-drilled tap hole. Follow the tap manufacturer's installation guide for secure fitting and plumbing connections.
- Waste Fitting: A standard basin waste fitting (sold separately) is required for drainage. Ensure it is compatible with the basin's waste outlet and your plumbing.
Compatibility:
- Taps: Compatible with any standard basin mixer tap designed for a single tap hole installation.
- Waste Fittings: Compatible with standard 1 1/4 inch basin waste traps.
- Vanity Units: Designed to fit with vanity units that accommodate a 450mm wide basin with a single tap hole. Specific dimensions for cutouts should be checked against the vanity unit specifications.
Care:
- Clean the basin regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the gloss finish.
- Rinse thoroughly with water after cleaning and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
