Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Slice, a bustling pizzeria in Inverness, needed to upgrade their staff handwashing facilities to comply with stricter hygiene audits. They were short on space near the dough prep area and  needed a solution that wouldn't require a major plumbing refit.

"The sensor sink was a brilliant find. It’s compact enough to fit where we needed it, and  the hands-free operation is fantastic. The team can wash up quickly and  hygienically between orders, and  our EHO was genuinely impressed on their last visit. It just works."

Ewan McGregor – Head Chef

The pizzeria successfully upgraded its facilities, leading to a smoother workflow and  a top rating in their subsequent food safety inspection.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Select a solid, load-bearing wall for mounting, ensuring it's close to your water supply lines.
  • Use the supplied keyhole slots on the back of the unit for a secure and  level fit.
  • We recommend a qualified plumber connects the pre-mixer valve and  waste to your services.
  • Insert four new, good-quality AA batteries into the sensor's battery compartment to get started.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe the stainless steel surfaces daily with a soft, damp cloth and  a mild, food-safe detergent.
  • Gently clean the black sensor eye with a soft cloth to ensure it remains responsive.
  • Keep an eye on the tap's responsiveness and  replace the batteries as soon as it slows down.
  • Periodically check the waste outlet to ensure it is free from any blockages or debris.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Sink

Not sure what fits best in your workspace? Here are a few pointers to help you choose the right hand wash basin.

Mind the Gap: Measure Your Space

Before you buy, measure the intended area. A compact, wall mounted commercial hand basin like this is brilliant for tight spots, but you still need to ensure adequate clearance for use.

Tap Into Hygiene: Manual vs. Sensor

Sensor taps are the top choice for preventing germ spread in high-risk areas like kitchens. Manual taps are a solid, budget-friendly option for lower-traffic staff areas.

Built to Last: Material Matters

For any commercial environment, stainless steel is the go-to material. It’s incredibly durable, hygienic, and  resistant to the rust and  corrosion that can plague lesser metals.

Think About Splashes: The Splashback

An integrated splashback is a lifesaver. It protects your walls from constant water exposure, preventing damp and  making the whole area much easier to wipe down and  keep clean.

All-In-One or Separate Parts?

Look for kits that include essential components like the tap, waste, and  a pre-mixer valve. This saves you the hassle and  cost of sourcing compatible parts separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How is this touchless sensor hand wash basin powered?

A: It runs on four standard AA batteries, which fit into a simple compartment. Please note that batteries are not supplied with the unit.

Q: Can I set the water to be warm?

A: Absolutely. It comes with a pre-mixer valve that connects to your hot and  cold water feeds, allowing you to set a constant, safe warm water temperature.

Q: Is it difficult to mount on the wall?

A: The basin is designed with keyhole slots for easy mounting. However, for all water connections, we strongly recommend using a qualified plumber.

Q: What is the sink made from?

A: The entire unit, including the bowl and  splashback, is made from durable, corrosion-resistant stainless steel, ideal for commercial use.

Q: How does the sensor activate?

A: The infrared sensor detects when hands are placed under the spout, automatically starting the water flow. It stops once hands are moved away.

Q: Does it include all the plumbing parts needed?

A: It includes the basin, sensor tap, spout, pre-mixer valve and  waste fitting. You will need to source standard plumbing parts like a P-trap separately.

Q: How should I clean this stainless steel sensor sink?

A: Use a soft cloth with a mild detergent or a dedicated stainless steel cleaner. Avoid using abrasive pads or harsh chemicals as they can scratch the surface.

Q: What happens if the batteries die?

A: The sensor and  tap will stop working until the batteries are replaced. We recommend keeping a spare set on-site to ensure continuous operation.

How the Pre-Mixer Valve Simplifies Safety

Ever wondered how a simple tap can deliver the perfect water temperature every time without fiddling with knobs? That's the magic of the included pre-mixer valve. Think of it as a little traffic controller for your hot and  cold water pipes. During installation, your plumber sets the valve to blend the two sources, creating a consistently warm flow that's ideal for effective hand washing.

This isn't just about convenience; it’s a crucial safety feature. It completely removes the risk of staff accidentally scalding their hands on water that's too hot, or rinsing with cold water that's less effective at removing grease and  grime. By setting the temperature once, you ensure every hand wash is safe, comfortable, and  compliant, which is a massive plus for both workplace safety and  hygiene standards.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurant Kitchens: Install near prep stations to maintain impeccable hygiene flow and  prevent cross-contamination between tasks.
  • Cosy Cafés & Delis: The perfect compact solution for staff or customer washrooms where space is at a premium.
  • Health & Beauty Clinics: Essential for environments where clinical-level hygiene is paramount for client safety and  trust.
  • Mobile Catering Vans: A simple, battery-powered hygiene solution for on-the-go food businesses needing to meet regulations.
