Product Information

Full details

This Affine 2 in 1 Toilet Cistern Basin Combo is designed for individuals looking to maximize space in cloakrooms or small bathrooms. Its key benefit is the integrated basin that sits atop the cistern, allowing water used for handwashing to refill the cistern, promoting water efficiency. A caveat is that the toilet pan, seat, and tap are sold separately and must be acquired independently. This product combines a toilet cistern with a basin directly mounted on top, offering a dual-purpose fixture.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What components are included with this product?

The product includes the toilet cistern and the basin that mounts on top. The toilet pan, toilet seat, and tap for the basin are not included.

Can I use any toilet pan with this cistern?

This cistern is designed to work with standard toilet pans. However, it's always best to check the specific dimensions and connection types if you are unsure.

How does the water re-use system work?

When you wash your hands in the basin, the water drains and is channeled through a pipe into the toilet cistern, topping it up and reducing the need for fresh water for the next flush.

Is professional installation required?

Due to the integrated nature and the water re-use plumbing, professional installation by a qualified plumber is highly recommended to ensure correct and safe operation.

What are the dimensions of the unit?

Specific dimensions are not provided in the product information. Please refer to the manufacturer's technical drawings or consult with a retailer for precise measurements.

How do I clean the basin and cistern?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For the cistern interior, use standard toilet cleaner methods but avoid harsh chemicals.

What is the warranty for this product?

Warranty information is not detailed in the product description. Please refer to the retailer or manufacturer for specific warranty terms.

Troubleshooting

Water not refilling cistern from basin

Check the connection pipe between the basin drain and the cistern inlet for blockages or kinks. Ensure the basin drain plug is not creating a seal that prevents water flow.

Leaking from basin connection to cistern

Inspect the seal and plumbing connections between the basin and cistern. Re-apply sealant or tighten fittings as necessary. Ensure the correct type of sealant is used for ceramic and plastic.

Weak toilet flush

Ensure the cistern is filling to the correct level. Check the flush valve for debris and ensure the water supply to the cistern is adequate.

Basin tap not functioning

This is related to the separately purchased tap. Check the tap's own water supply and internal mechanism.
