Operating Instructions
The Negrari utility sink is designed for general washing and utility tasks. Its robust polypropylene construction makes it suitable for handling various liquids and materials.
- General Use: Use the sink for washing hands, cleaning tools, watering plants, or other utility purposes.
- Temperature: While resistant to various conditions, avoid pouring extremely hot liquids (boiling water) directly into the sink for prolonged periods, as this may affect the material over time.
- Chemicals: The sink is resistant to common household acids. However, avoid strong industrial chemicals or solvents that may damage the polypropylene.
- Weight Capacity: Do not place excessively heavy objects in the sink or apply undue pressure to its edges.
Maintenance
Regular cleaning and proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your Negrari utility sink.
- Cleaning: Clean the sink regularly with mild soap or detergent and a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly with water.
- Stains: For stubborn stains, a non-abrasive cleaner suitable for plastic surfaces can be used. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemical cleaners, which can scratch or dull the surface.
- Drain Maintenance: Periodically check the siphon for any blockages and clean as necessary to ensure proper drainage. The self-cleaning siphon helps prevent common clogs.
- Outdoor Use: For outdoor installations, periodically inspect the sink and its fixings for any signs of wear or weather damage. The material is UV-resistant, but extreme prolonged exposure may cause slight fading over many years.
Troubleshooting
Here are some common issues and their potential solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Water Leakage | Loose plumbing connections, damaged seals, improper siphon assembly. | Check and tighten all connections. Inspect seals and replace if damaged. Reassemble siphon correctly. |
| Slow Drainage | Clogged drain or siphon. | Remove the siphon and clean out any debris. Use a drain cleaner suitable for plastic pipes if necessary. |
| Sink Feels Unstable | Loose wall fixings, inadequate wall support. | Ensure wall screws are securely tightened. If the wall is not strong enough, consider adding additional support or relocating the sink. |
