FAQs
We highly recommend that you hire a certified plumber to install your glass vessel sink. You might find this article with step-by-step instructions helpful, too.
Durability
Ailee Designs glass vessel sinks are hand-crafted from quality tempered glass and are extremely durable. They are tempered to 750 degrees and able to withstand extremely cold and boiling hot water.
Drain holes
All Ailee Designs glass vessel sinks come with prefinished drain holes which are 1.75" across. For the drain, most prefer to match the drain color with the faucet. There are many different styles and finishes of drains specifically made to fit glass vessel sinks, so be sure the drain surface is durable so the finish stays on and there is no pitting. They are often called pop-up drains, where the plug moves up and down to control drainage with a tap. (Customer reviews of drains may help.) Finally, some plumbers prefer a drain with a long (at least 2") threading, which makes it easier to install, and a wider drain.
Care and maintenance
To keep your vessel in its original condition, simple but regular maintenance is important. Consider cleaning with a soapy sponge weekly (some owners choose to do this after each use), rinsing with warm water and drying with a soft towel or cloth. This will eliminate water spots and streaks.
Stain-resistance
Some customers have minerals in their water supply that seem to stain sinks. Don’t worry! Eliminate stain spots using a non-abrasive cleaner, and do not apply force or scrub while cleaning the glass, as this may impact the surface. Rinse with warm water and dry with a soft towel or cloth. CAUTION: Avoid products containing bleach or chlorine, high concentrations of acids, and dishwashing detergents. These products may stain the surface of the vessel. Rinse thoroughly if any of these chemicals or products come in contact with it and dry with a soft towel or cloth.
