FAQs

What material is the Flode Mockeln sink made of?

The sink is constructed from 16 gauge (1.5mm thick) high-quality stainless steel, featuring an 'Nano' coating for enhanced protection.

Is the gun metal finish difficult to maintain?

The gun metal finish is durable, but like most stainless steel finishes, it benefits from being wiped dry after use to prevent water spots. Regular cleaning with mild soap and water is recommended.

Can I install this sink myself?

While possible for experienced DIYers, professional installation is recommended to ensure a perfect fit, watertight seal, and correct plumbing connections.

What are the exact dimensions of the sink bowl?

The sink features a super deep bowl measuring 440mm in width, 440mm in depth, and 200mm in height.

Does the sink come with a drain or strainer?

Yes, the Flode Mockeln sink comes complete with the necessary waste and overflow fittings.

Is the 'Nano' coating safe for food preparation?

Yes, the 'Nano' coating is inspired by food-grade tableware, is lead-free, and offers antibacterial properties, making it safe for kitchen use.

How does the X-line drainage system work?

The X-line system uses precision-engineered channel grooves at the bottom of the sink to guide water efficiently towards the drain, ensuring optimal drainage and preventing standing water.

Troubleshooting

Sink is not draining properly

Ensure the waste and overflow fittings are correctly installed and not obstructed. Check the sink's bottom channel grooves for any debris. Clean the sink trap if necessary.

Scratches appear on the surface

The 'Nano' coating offers high scratch resistance. If minor marks occur, try cleaning with a non-abrasive cleaner. For deeper scratches, professional resurfacing may be an option, though typically rare.

Water spots or discoloration observed

Wipe the sink dry with a soft cloth after each use. Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and water to remove existing spots. Avoid leaving acidic or alkaline substances in the sink for extended periods.

Antibacterial coating seems ineffective

The 'Nano' coating provides inherent antibacterial properties. Ensure the surface is clean. Persistent issues may require consulting the manufacturer, though this is uncommon.

Pros and Cons

  • Aesthetically pleasing artisan brushed finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

Installation typically requires a standard countertop cutout. Ensure the cabinet below can support the sink's weight. Connect the included waste and overflow fittings according to plumbing guidelines. Professional installation is recommended to ensure a watertight seal and proper alignment.

Compatibility:

This sink is designed for standard kitchen plumbing fixtures. It fits into countertops with a minimum opening of 440mm x 440mm. Check that your chosen faucet and any accessories are compatible with the sink's mounting type and dimensions.

Care:

To maintain the sink's finish and 'Nano' coating:

  1. Rinse the sink thoroughly after each use.
  2. Wipe dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots, especially on the gun metal finish.
  3. For cleaning, use mild dish soap and warm water with a soft sponge or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals, which can damage the 'Nano' coating and finish.
  4. Periodically check and clean the drainage channels and waste trap to ensure optimal performance.
