FAQs

What type of taps can I use with this washbasin?

Since this basin has no tap holes, you will need to use wall-mounted taps or taps designed for countertop installation.

Does the basin have an overflow hole?

No, the Rea Sofia washbasin does not feature an overflow hole. It is important to use a plug and avoid leaving the tap running unattended to prevent water spillage.

What are the external dimensions of the washbasin?

The external dimensions are 410 mm in length, 345 mm in width, and 150 mm in height.

What material is the washbasin made from?

The washbasin is made from high-quality sanitary ceramic.

How do I clean the light stone imitation finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

What is the diameter of the drain hole?

The diameter of the drain hole is 45 mm.

Is this basin suitable for a small bathroom?

With dimensions of 410 x 345 x 150 mm, it can fit in various spaces. However, the countertop installation requires adequate vanity space. Consider your overall bathroom layout.

Troubleshooting

Water pooling in the basin

Ensure the drain is properly installed and not blocked. Check that the basin is installed with a slight slope towards the drain hole if possible during installation.

Minor scratches on the surface

For light scratches, try using a non-abrasive ceramic cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

Sealant around the basin is degrading

Carefully remove old sealant and reapply a high-quality silicone sealant suitable for bathroom use. Ensure the area is clean and dry before application.

Drainage is slow

Check the trap and waste pipe for any blockages. Ensure the 45mm drain fitting is correctly seated and sealed.

  • Standard drain size for easy plumbing integration.
  • No tap hole provides design flexibility for faucet selection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This washbasin is designed for countertop installation. Ensure your vanity or countertop is structurally sound and can support the weight of the basin and water. Position the basin on the vanity, mark the drain hole location, and cut the necessary opening in the countertop if required. Connect the drain fitting (45mm diameter) to the basin and the waste pipe. For faucet installation, ensure you have wall-mounted or countertop-mounted taps, as there are no pre-drilled holes in the basin itself. Seal the edges of the basin to the countertop with a suitable silicone sealant to prevent water ingress.

Compatibility:

  • Drain: Compatible with standard 45mm drain fittings and traps. Recommended to use with a siphon and plug available separately.
  • Faucets: Requires faucets that are either wall-mounted or designed for countertop mounting, as the basin has no tap holes.
  • Vanity/Countertop: Suitable for installation on robust vanities or countertops designed to hold the basin's weight and dimensions (410 x 345 x 150 mm).

Care:

Clean the washbasin regularly using a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the sanitary ceramic surface or the light stone imitation finish. For stubborn marks, use a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner specifically designed for ceramic surfaces. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
