FAQs

What type of faucet is recommended for this washbasin?

Due to the absence of a tap hole, this basin is designed for use with wall-mounted faucets or deck-mounted faucets installed on a separate countertop.

Does the washbasin come with a drain or faucet?

No, the washbasin is sold separately and does not include a faucet or drain assembly. These components must be purchased additionally.

What are the exact dimensions of the washbasin?

The external dimensions are approximately 350 mm in length, 260 mm in width, and 125 mm in height.

Is the shiny white finish durable?

Yes, the basin is made of high-quality sanitary ceramic with a durable shiny white finish. However, it should be cleaned with non-abrasive materials to maintain its appearance.

Can I install a standard faucet directly onto this basin?

No, this basin does not have a hole for a standard faucet. You will need a faucet that mounts to the wall or the surface behind the basin.

What is the diameter of the drain hole?

The drain hole has a diameter of 45 mm, which is a standard size compatible with most basin waste fittings.

What is the weight of the washbasin?

The washbasin weighs approximately 8.16 pounds (3.7 kg).

Troubleshooting

Water pooling in the basin

Ensure the drain hole is not blocked and the drain trap is installed correctly to allow proper drainage.

Faint scratches on the surface

Use a non-abrasive ceramic cleaner and a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials for cleaning.

Water splashing excessively

Check the faucet's aerator and flow rate. Adjusting the faucet's position or height might also help.

Installation difficulties with faucet

Consult the installation manual for your specific wall-mounted or deck-mounted faucet. Professional installation is advised if unsure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Adds elegance and simplicity to any bathroom.
  • Made from durable, high-quality sanitary ceramic.
  • Compact size suitable for various spaces.
  • Modern and unique aesthetic appeal.
  • Easy to clean surface.

Cons

  • Requires a wall-mounted or deck-mounted faucet due to no tap hole.
  • No overflow hole necessitates careful water monitoring to prevent spills.
  • Specific faucet installation might be needed.
  • Stone imitation finish may not suit all decor styles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation requires a solid mounting surface. Since there is no tap hole in the basin itself, ensure you have the appropriate wall-mounted or deck-mounted faucet hardware. The 45 mm drain hole is compatible with standard basin waste fittings. Professional installation is recommended, especially for connecting water supply lines and drainage.

Compatibility: This washbasin is compatible with most standard bathroom faucets that do not require basin mounting (e.g., wall-mounted or deck-mounted mixers). Ensure your chosen faucet's reach and height are suitable for the basin's dimensions. It also works with standard 45 mm drain traps.

Care: Clean the basin regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the shiny finish. For stubborn marks, use a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner. Wipe dry after cleaning to prevent water spots.
