• Vermijd schuurmiddelen: Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals (e.g., bleach, strong acids) as these can scratch or damage the stainless steel finish.
• Voorkom vlekken: Avoid leaving acidic foods (e.g., citrus, tomatoes) or corrosive substances in the sink for extended periods. Rinse thoroughly after contact.

Probleemoplossing

In dit gedeelte worden veelvoorkomende problemen met uw gootsteen besproken.

• Langzame drainage:

  Oorzaak: Blockage in the drain or valve basket.Oplossing: Remove the valve basket and clean any accumulated food particles or debris. If the issue persists, a plumbing snake or drain cleaner may be required for the P-trap.

• Watervlekken:

  Oorzaak: Kalkaanslag of onvoldoende drogen.Oplossing: Wipe the sink dry after each use. For existing spots, use a mixture of vinegar and water, or a specialized stainless steel cleaner, and buff with a soft cloth.
• Krassen op het oppervlak:

  Oorzaak: Abrasive materials or harsh scrubbing.Oplossing: Stainless steel can scratch. Minor scratches can sometimes be blended with a fine abrasive pad (like Scotch-Brite) rubbed in the direction of the grain, but this should be done with caution. Prevent future scratches by avoiding abrasive cleaners and sharp objects.

• Leaks Around Sink Edge:

  Oorzaak: Improper sealing during installation or loose clips.Oplossing: Check the installation clips and tighten if necessary. Reapply silicone sealant around the sink's perimeter if the seal is compromised.
