Wash-hand basin in confined space
I have a small terraced househouse with a bathroom off the kitchen.
The bathroom has no wash hand basin, and there is a radiator in the only logical place for it. is there a whb small enough to mount above a rad, and how would I drain it? Or is there another way of doing this? |

You would need to connect the waste from the basin to a trap and thence to a soil pipe. There are fittings you can attach to the toilet waste to take the output of a basin. |

Or is there another way of doing this? You could replace the radiator with a smaller double or triple panel one to get the same heat and make space. However, I would warn you that radiators are notorious for going rusty if the outside gets exposed to moisture (enamel coating is not waterproof), and so positioning one under a sink will likely result in rust marks appearing on it before long. -- Andrew Gabriel |
