When fitting a pedestal basin it’s important it is installed correctly to prevent it from leaking and leading to water damage. ARROW brand pedestal basin is famous for its quality and durability, and it is important to have the right installation to get its full benefit. Here are some measures to help ensure correct installation
Measure and mark your mounting points correctly
You’ll want to measure where your ARROW pedestal basin is going before you install it. Use a measuring tape to determine the best location on your bathroom wall. Once you've found the ideal spot, mark with a pencil the location where the basin's mounting points will be. This step is super crucial: If you don’t measure accurately, your basin could be wobbly or crooked
You can confirm that the basin is set in straight with a level
With mounting holes marked, now is the time to double check that your basin will hang straight. Pick up a level and set it on one edge of the basin. If the bubble is not in the middle, tilt the basin until it is. It might take a few shots, but it’s absolutely critical that your basin on pedestal be district straight. If it’s not, it might seem funny looking and water could not drain correctly

Then, hang your basin on the wall. You’ll want to attach it to the wall studs which are super strong and will prevent your basin from moving. If the basin indicates that it doesn’t toggle, then use a stud finder to find the studs behind the wall, and drill screws through the basin’s mounting holes into the studs. Ensure the screws are tight and your basin does not wobble
Check if the plumbing connections are leaking or not
With your new basin installed, it's time to hook up the plumbing. Screw on the pipes, and tighten everything. Once it’s all hooked up, turn on the water and make sure there are no leaks. If you notice water dribbling, you might need to tighten the connections a little more or wrap the threads with some plumber’s tape to seal them
Silicone to waterproof the edges of basin
The final step is to seal the edges of your basin where it touches the wall. This will keep water from seeping behind the under counter basin and damaging it. 6) Here's some silicone sealant, apply it along so it's smooth. Use a damp cloth to rub off any excessive sealant and let it dry. This is sure to make your bathroom look neat and dry
Follow these steps to make sure your ARROW pedestal basin is installed properly and is built to last. Go slow and make sure you do each step properly and you’ll end up with a perfectly functioning sink you can be proud of!
