Pedestal Sinks for Small Bathrooms
Pedestal sinks are a great choice for small bathrooms because they offer a space-saving design that creates an open and uncluttered look. Pedestal sinks have a more narrow footprint than a countertop or vanity, which can make a compact bathroom feel more spacious and airy. Additionally, pedestal sinks focus on essential functionality while freeing up floor space, allowing for more movement and easier cleaning in tight quarters.
Overflow Drains for Sinks
An overflow drain is a secondary opening near the top of the pedestal sink basin that prevents water from spilling over the edge if water is left running. Kohler pedestal sinks are available with and without this overflow drain, which is particularly useful in homes with children or high-traffic bathrooms, where the risk of overflow is higher.
Installing a Pedestal Sink
One of the reasons pedestal sinks are so great is the ease of installation as they do not require a separate vanity. Ensure that the area is properly cleaned before installation, and that the position is aligned with plumbing lines. Attach the basin to the wall using the supplied mounting hardware, and once secure, install the pedestal beneath the basin, ensuring it aligns with the drain and supports the sinkās weight. Connect the water supply and drain lines, tightening all fittings. Finally, seal any gaps with caulk to prevent water leaks and test for proper function. Remember to always follow the specific directions provided with your pedestal sink for proper installation and operation.
