When selecting plumbing components, a flexible hose pipe is often recommended for easier installation. For fixed traps, precise measurements are necessary to ensure proper fit. It is essential to align the dimensions of your plumbing with the sink's back access holes for a seamless connection.
Installation Steps
- Position the Pedestal: Carefully place the pedestal in its intended location. Use a level to ensure it is perfectly plumb and stable.
- Connect Plumbing: Route the water supply lines and drain pipes through the designated access holes located at the back of the pedestal.
- Secure the Sink: Although freestanding, it is crucial to securely anchor the sink to the floor or wall to prevent accidental tipping, especially in households with children or pets. Consult the installation manual (if provided separately) for specific anchoring methods.
- Install Faucet and Drain: Attach your chosen single-hole faucet and pop-up drain assembly according to their respective manufacturer's instructions. Ensure all connections are watertight.

Maintenance and Care
Cleaning Instructions
The vitreous china material and non-porous surface of your Eridanus sink are designed for effortless cleaning and maintenance.
- For routine cleaning, simply wipe the sink surface with a soft, dry cloth after each use to prevent water spots.
- For more thorough cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry immediately.
- Avoid: Abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, harsh chemicals, or strong acids, as these can damage the glossy finish and compromise the integrity of the vitreous china.

The premium vitreous china is tougher, denser, and glossier than standard ceramic, providing excellent resistance to moisture and stains, which simplifies long-term maintenance.
Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your pedestal sink and provides practical solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Water Leakage | Loose plumbing connections, damaged seals or gaskets. | Carefully inspect all connections (faucet, drain, supply lines) and tighten as necessary. Replace any worn or damaged seals and gaskets. |
| Slow Drainage | Accumulation of hair, soap scum, or debris in the drain pipe or pop-up assembly. | Remove the pop-up drain stopper and clean any visible obstructions. For deeper clogs, use a chemical drain cleaner (follow manufacturer's instructions) or a plumbing snake. |
| Sink Instability / Tipping | Improper or insufficient anchoring to the floor or wall. | Ensure the sink is securely anchored to the floor using appropriate fasteners and methods. If unsure, consult a qualified plumber or contractor for assistance. |
| Surface Stains / Discoloration | Hard water deposits, mineral buildup, or residue from certain cleaning products. | Clean immediately with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth. For stubborn hard water stains, a diluted vinegar solution can be used, followed by thorough rinsing. |
