Anupam sinks is warranted for one year from the date of purchase against any manufacturing defect on normal residential use only. No warranty will stand if used in commercial area. Kindly click here to check warranty conditions.
Acid, toilet cleaners, or any alkaline cleaners can harm the surface of the sink. Using any of these will void the warranty.
Satin and Glossy finish is available.
It's extremely important because it absorbs sound, protects against condensation and helps maintain sink water temperature. All Anupam sinks are spray-coated with exclusive undercoating. With our Sound Guard Undercoating, available on all models, additional sound-deadening pad is applied before spraying.
This is completely a matter of personal preference. Do you like the "finished" look of the raised rim of a top mount sink? Our top mount design helps keep water off the countertop. Or you may prefer the trim, clean, uncluttered look of an under mount sink. With Anupam, you'll have many choices in both sink styles.
Lay a straight edge across the top surface of the sink rim. Then use a ruler to measure the distance between the bottom edge of the straight edge and bowl bottom, as close to the drain as possible.
Bowl depth, taper and radius are the three basic sink measurements for comparing sink sizes. Depth, of course, is the distance from the top of the rim to the bottom of the sink next to the drain. Bowl taper is the inward slope of each side of the sink from rim to bottom. Radius is the measure of the bowl's corners & bottoms where the sides and bottom meet. The point to remember is this: the deeper the bowl, the straighter the slope, the smaller the radius, the more useful the sink capacity.
Consider how you use your sink. If you have a big family and prepare most meals at home, the bigger and deeper, the better.If you do a lot of entertaining or extensive food preparation, consider a sinkwith a built-in work surface. For a lot of pots and pans, make sure your new sink is deep enough with at least one large bowl for washing. The Anupam collection includes a wide variety of sink shapes, sizes and configurations designed to meet your needs exactly.
It is very important. The thicker the steel, the less susceptible it is to denting, bowing, noise transmission and the hard knocks of pots and pans. The thickness, called "gauge", can be confusing at first, because the lower the number, the thicker the steel. Anupam sinks are made in 19 gauge steel (19 gauge=1mm) -- more than ample thickness for residential sinks.
Yes. That's why some steel sinks look bright and shiny at first, but soon rust or corrode. Therefore, the premium-grade steel we select for our high-end residential sinks is stainless steel Type 304. It combines chromium and nickel in exactly the right proportions for superior corrosion resistance and durability. And it's the blend that allows the sink to be for med into the dramatic shapes you'll find in the Anupam line. You'll also find that this steel "gives" a little, reducing the chance of dish breakage.
Whether you're building, remodelling, or just sprucing up your kitchen, one big decision will be your choice of a sink. These guidelines are designed to help you make the best choice for your kitchen, for years of durability, working pleasure and high-quality appearance.
Anupam sink will work at least 25 to 30 years in normal residential use in standard conditions.
We do not recommend any colour coating on Kitchen Sinks or Floor Drainers because no coating is long last in water use.

When the water evaporates it leaves a residue. The residue which dries over the sink's surface turns to a rusty colour giving the appearance of rust. Another common cause of surface rust is chlorides being left on the sink.
Here are some tips: Rinse your fixtures thoroughly after every use. Clean all stainless steel fixtures at least once a week. Avoid cleaners containing chloride (bleach), as they can corrode the fixture. Use mild products such as: vinegar, baking soda or Anupam's Metloshine.
While a double sink needs to be large enough to accommodate two bowls, single bowl sink scan take up relatively little space. Therefore, single bowl sinks are more useful for things like washing large pots or babies, while a double bowl sink has more options for how to use the sink.
Install a stainless steel bottom grid in your sink to protect the bowl from scratches. Don't use a rubber mats because corrosive chemicals can become trapped between the mat and the sink. Bottom grids allow a free flow of water to keep the bowl clean.
The appearance of minor scratches within the first few weeks of use is absolutely normal and to be expected. Do not be alarmed if small scratches or scuffs appear in your new sink as they are often superficial scratches which will become less noticeable with age.

Stainless steel sinks are a popular because they are affordable, durable, and easy to clean. Stainless steel sinks also resist chipping and cracking, however are likely to be scratched through everyday use and often show water spots. Although they are easy to clean, they require regular maintenance to look their best.
When the water evaporates it leaves a residue. The residue which dries over the sink's surface turns to a rusty colour giving the appearance of rust. Another common cause of surface rust is chlorides being left on the sink surface. Chlorides are found in many common detergents, soaps, and cleaners.
Among kitchen sinks, those made with stainless steel are durable options. Stainless steel sinks last 15 to 30 years, proper care and maintenance will make your sink last longer.
Cleaning Products You Should Never Use on Stainless Steel
1. Harsh abrasives.
2. Scouring powders.
3. Steel wool.
4. Bleach and other chlorine products.
5. Glass cleaners that contain ammonia.
6. Hard water, (use clean distilled or filtered H2O instead or use water softener)
7. Oven cleaners.
1. Visible Wear and Tear. One of the most visible signs is that the sink has some physical damage.
2. Constantly Repaired. Another reason to replace your sink is that it's always scheduled for repair.
3. Completely Outdated. Remember when pink and blue sinks were a common trend?
Some people feel that placing the sink in the island would make it easier to have a conversation with guests or family members seated at the island or in the adjoining room. However, We usually suggest against this. Sinks tend to attract clutter, dirty dishes, and, often, become an area for clean, drying dishes.
To find the litre capacity of a sink, you multiply the length by width by depth (L x W x D) of your sink bowl and divide the answer by 63, which is the cubic volume by inches in a litre. The length is the measurement of the bowl from right to left. The width is the measurement from back to front.
Experts recommend at least 22 to 27 inches in length, which also works for small kitchens and 40 to 50 inches for large kitchens. Although size of sink is totally depends on your requirement and space. Length is one factor, but you also have to consider the depth of the sink. Kitchen sinks should be at least 8 to 9 inches deep; anything less and your dishes will quickly pile up and reach the faucet.
It's the most popular sink material in homes and commercial kitchens alike, and for very good reason: stainless steel sinks are durable, low-maintenance, heat and stain resistant, affordable, and impervious to chipping and cracking.
Standard taps and spouts generally require a hole of at least 22mm in diameter for single inlet watertaps, taking both a hot and cold supply, mostly require a 35mm diameter hole.
A sink's minimum cabinet size is a measurement indicating the least amount of under-cabinet and topcounter space required for the sink to fit properly.
Position the sink so it is cantered on the sink cabinet and is at least 1 1/2 inches back from the countertop's front edge. If your countertop is deeper than 24 inches, place it farther back, but not more than 4 inches.
The recommended size for a base cabinet is 39" or bigger. It is recommended that the size of the sink you are considering to install should be 3" inches or more smaller than your base cabinet size.
To determine the maximum sink size for your base cabinet, measure the interior of your cabinet and subtract two to three inches from each dimension. A 36″ base cabinet can handle a 33″ sink at most; a 30″ cabinet should be fitted with a sink no larger than 27″ wide.
For example, a 36" cabinet can accommodate a 30"-32" sink. Next, measure front to back to find cabinet depth (standard cabinets have a 24" depth). If your countertop has a backsplash, subtract its thickness from this figure. In general, most cabinets can accommodate a sink that is 20 inches front to back.
It's possible for a plumber to make that switch with the sinks without too much trouble, although your sink will have to be out of service for a day or two. Under-mounted sinks are generally held tight against the countertop with mounting clips that are installed beneath the counters. But if the sink installed between countertop and lower stone like in sandwich condition which is not recommended then you have to cut the countertop according to your sink size and install a bigger size sink if your cabinet have a space.
If you were to look in the kitchens of most homes, you would find the kitchen sink under an exterior window. Even though there is no general rule that the kitchen sink must be installed under a window, here are six reasons why people have the sink installed in this location:
1. Kitchen plumbing is easier to install and access
2. Placing the sink under the windows makes the best use of the entire space.
3. You gain the benefit of being able to look outside while doing dishes.
4. You can open the window when washing smelly dishes and get fresh air.
5. You do not have to worry about turning on lights when using the kitchen sink in the daytime.
Placing a sink under a window has been a common tradition in house building for decades.

As a natural cleaner, vinegar is one of the most recommended substances for care and cleaning of Chrome finished faucets and fixtures. Vinegar is tough enough to combat even the most difficult mineral deposits and food stains, as well as gentle enough to protect the Chrome finishing. It is recommended to dilute vinegar with water 1:1 for everyday cleaning, but undiluted vinegar may be used for tougher deposits and water spots.
Choosing the finish for your kitchen faucet should depend on the design of your kitchen. Stainless Steel and Chrome are two of the most durable finishes for high traffic faucets in the kitchen. Chrome is suitable for traditional kitchen / bathroom design. Stainless Steel is a smart choice for a contemporary kitchen design. Anupam’s Stainless Steel finish blends well with traditional Stainless Steel kitchen appliances.

If your garbage disposal sink is clogged, there are several ways you can try to fix it without having to call a plumber. Before trying to unclog it, always switch off the garbage disposal's power source for safety purposes. Often times, a sink can be unclogged using a plunger or baking soda and white vinegar. If there's something stuck in your sink, try using tongs to remove the object. If you think there's something stuck in the actual garbage disposal, manually turn the blades to help dislodge it.
1 Unplug the garbage disposal or turn it off at the breaker. The plug to the garbagedisposal is located under the sink. Turning off the power to the garbagedisposal is important so you're working with the disposal safely.[6] Plug the disposal bag in to a power source once you're finished unclogging it, or turn back on the circuit breaker.
2 Pour 100 gm of baking soda into the garbage disposal. Measure out the baking soda using a measuring cup. Pour it directly into the drain, making sure to hold it right over the centre of the drain so it goes straight down.
3 Add 200 ml of white vinegar down the drain. Measure out the white vinegar before carefully pouring it down the drain just as you did with the baking soda. When white vinegar and baking soda combine, they create a cleaning chemical that helps to loosen any food that’s stuck to the sides of the drain.
- Don't be alarmed when the ingredients start fizzing when they touch each other—this means it's working! - Pour the white vinegar slowly to make sure it all goes down the drain.
4 Let the mixture sit in the drain for 5-10 minutes. During this time, the ingredients will continue to fizz and create foam. Set a timer for 5-10 minutes so you know when it’s time to rinse out the drain.
5 Run hot water down the drain for a few minutes. Turn the faucet to the hottest setting possible. Let the water run down the drain for at least 2 minutes, washing away the white vinegar and baking soda mixture while removing any loosened food as well.
6 Turn on the garbage disposal to test it out. Plug the garbage disposal back in or turn back on the circuit breaker. Flip the garbage disposal switch to see if it runs smoothly, listening for its normal loud sound that signals it’s fixed.

Anupam KRISTAL sinks is extremely easy to clean. Please see our care and cleaning instructions. Care and Cleaning
No. Anupam KRISTAL sinks are cast in a single pouring, and so are coloured through completely. Normal household use does not cause any discernible changes in colour.
Each and every KRISTAL sink’s underside does have some roughness and texture which may be interpreted as cracks. This is a natural part of our production process. The texture you are seeing on the backside is a result of the curing process of the material after casting. It does not in any way deter from the strength of the product, but rather allows for the perfect combination of interior surface hardness and overall strength. This ensures that the maximum amount of granite is at the useable surface. It is this process that makes our sinks the MOST durable and the most hygienic surface available in the market today.

Quartz composite is one of the most durable sink materials available! It's smooth and nonporous, making it easy to clean, heat-resistant up to 390° F, and resistant to stains, scratches, dents, and chips.
Quartz sinks are non-porous, making them resistant to bacteria and staining. For this reason, harsh cleaners like bleach aren't required. In reality, bleach can damage the surface of your quartz sink or cause permanent discoloration to the sink.
Hard Water stains are by far the most common reasons that quartz sink material might lose its luster. When water is left to set into the material, it will cause damage to the finish that seals the sink.
Quartz sinks a reheat resistant... Since the resin can only withstand approximately 390°F, placing very hot materials such as a pan directly out of the oven will burn the countertop and cause permanent damage.
· Quartz (SiO 2) - a mixture of silicon and oxygen, a solid material inferior in this property, only diamond and topaz, it is extremely strong, durable, resistant to chemical agents and strong acids, soluble only in alkali or hydrofluoric acid. Quartz melting temperature is 1700°C. It is also resistant to shock, cracking, has advantages over granite and marble.
· Granite 25-35% consists of quartz, which gives it strength, 60-65% feldspars, 5-10% mica (biotite) Melting point1215-1260°C, in the presence of water and pressure is greatly reduced to 650°C
· Marble is composed of calcite(calcium carbonate) and contaminants of other minerals, granite it is softer, less well tolerated humidity and temperature drop, when piercing decomposes without melting to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide - CaCO3 - t -> CaO + CO2. Our products are made from 80% natural quartz stone and 20% binders, which gives them a significant advantage over composite products, which include granite or marble.
Comparison of physical properties of quartz material with the marble and granite:
Thanks to innovative technology and the right combination of all the components, the products have: high mechanical strength, high heat resistance, the product of quartz can withstand temperatures up to 200°C and can easily withstand the temperature to which exposed surfaces in the home, simplicity in operation, the absence of emission of harmful substances when heated. Pleasant to the touch, heat retention, have a homogeneous non-porous structure that did not allow bacteria and liquid to penetrate into the surface.

Use a container, such as an ice cream container or a small bucket, to scoop out as much water as possible; wear gloves to protect your hands. Check the clogged drain for debris, fluff, soap scum and pieces, paste build-up, etc., and remove any debris as best you can.
Push 1 cup of baking soda down the sink drain. Use a spatula to force the baking soda into the opening, if necessary.
Pour 2 cup of vinegar into the drain opening. Put the stopper into the sink so that the vinegar is forced toward the clog.
Wait 15 minutes to allow the solution to work on the clog. Run boiling water into the sink to see if the clog disappears. If the sink is still clogged, then apply the baking soda and vinegar solution again.
