Troubleshooting

Drawer is stiff or not closing properly

Check for any obstructions inside the drawer or on the runners. Ensure the unit is level. The soft-close mechanism may require adjustment by a qualified installer if damage is suspected.

Water leaking from basin waste connection

Ensure the basin waste fitting is correctly installed and all seals are tight. Check that the correct type of waste fitting is used for the basin.

Unit feels unstable

Verify that the unit is placed on a flat, level surface. Check that all components are securely fastened. If instability persists, consult a professional installer.

Tap does not fit the tap hole

Confirm that a mono basin mixer tap is being used. Ensure the tap's base diameter is compatible with the tap hole size. Taps are sold separately; check product specifications before purchasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This Nuie Athena vanity unit comes fully assembled, simplifying the installation process. Ensure the floor is level before positioning the unit. The basin requires a mono basin mixer tap (sold separately) which should be installed before connecting the unit to water supply. Waste fittings (sold separately) will also need to be connected to the basin's central waste outlet.

Compatibility: The unit is designed with a single central tap hole, making it compatible with most standard mono basin mixer taps. Ensure your chosen tap has the correct spout reach for the 390mm basin. The waste outlet is designed for standard basin waste fittings.

Care: Clean the unit and basin using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the anthracite woodgrain finish and the ceramic basin. For spills, wipe them up immediately to prevent staining or damage. Periodically check that the unit remains stable and secure.
