Troubleshooting
Basin has a slight wobble after installation.
Ensure all wall mounting fixings are securely tightened. Check if the floor or wall is perfectly level, as minor imperfections can cause instability. Adjust fixings or use shims if necessary.
Water not draining effectively.
Verify that the correct type of slotted basin waste has been installed. Ensure the waste is not clogged with debris. Check the connection to the bottle trap or P-trap for any blockages.
Tap is difficult to fit into the tap hole.
Ensure you are using a standard mono basin mixer tap designed for basins with a single tap hole. Check for any manufacturing debris within the tap hole that may be obstructing the tap base.
White gloss finish appears dull.
The finish may be dull due to residue from cleaning products. Clean the basin with a mild soap and water solution, rinse thoroughly, and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
