IMEX Arco Square Countertop Basin

The Arco Square Countertop Basin (LW1816) is a countertop basin built for the modern bathroom, sitting on top of a vanity unit for a striking centerpiece installation.

About Countertop Basins

Countertop basins sit on top of a vanity unit or worktop for a 'bowl on counter' design statement. They're popular in modern bathrooms because the basin itself becomes a visible feature, and you get full use of the cupboard beneath. Pair with a tall basin mixer or wall-mounted tap.

• No tap holes (use with wall-mounted or tall mixer)
• Easy-clean glaze

Installation Notes

Countertop basins sit on the surface of a vanity unit or worktop with a 32mm waste hole drilled below. Silicone the basin to the worktop for a watertight seal, then plumb the waste below the counter. Pair with a tall basin mixer or wall-mounted tap.

Care & Maintenance

Clean with a soft cloth and a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner. Avoid bleach on the seat surface (it can discolour plastic) and scouring pads on the ceramic (they leave fine scratches that hold dirt). Vinegar diluted 1:5 with water is a good limescale remover. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning to prevent residue marks.
