5. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your Lordear kitchen sink.

• Daily Cleaning: Use a soft towel or sponge with mild soap and water to clean the sink surface. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry to prevent water spots.
• Avoid Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the gunmetal black finish and the Nano-PVD layer.
• Prevent Scratches: Avoid dropping sharp or heavy objects into the sink. The 16-gauge stainless steel is durable, but excessive force can cause damage.
• R10 Round Corners: The R10 round corners are designed for easier cleaning, preventing dirt and grime buildup in tight angles.
• X-Shape Flow Line: The X-shape diversion waterlines on the bottom of the sink facilitate efficient drainage, preventing water pooling.
• Sound Reduction: The sink features thickened rubber pads (3.0mm thick panel) to effectively reduce noise during use.
• During Remodeling: Keep the sink away from decoration materials during remodeling projects to prevent accidental damage or staining.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Lordear kitchen sink, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Slow Drainage: Check the drain assembly for any obstructions. Ensure the X-shape flow lines are clear. If using a garbage disposal, ensure it is functioning correctly.
• Leaks: Inspect all plumbing connections under the sink. Tighten any loose fittings. If leaks persist, re-apply silicone sealant around the sink rim or consult a professional plumber.
• Water Spots/Stains: These are often caused by mineral deposits. Use a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for stainless steel sinks. Always rinse thoroughly and dry the sink after each use.
• Faucet Malfunction: If the faucet has low pressure or inconsistent spray, check the aerator for mineral buildup and clean it if necessary. Ensure water supply lines are fully open.

For complex issues or if problems persist, it is recommended to contact a qualified plumber or Lordear customer support.
