Troubleshooting

Sink is not draining efficiently.

Ensure the Orbit waste trap is clear of debris. Check the pipework for any blockages. Verify that the sink is installed level.

Water is pooling around the overflow.

Check that the overflow outlet is not blocked. Ensure the flush-plate overflow is correctly seated.

Scratches or marks on the stainless steel surface.

Minor scratches can often be buffed out using a specialized stainless steel cleaner and a soft cloth, following the grain of the steel. Avoid abrasive materials in the future.

Difficulty fitting the sink into the countertop.
