Q. What is PVD finish on a pop-up waste coupling?
A. PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) is a premium coating that bonds to the brass pop-up waste, giving a durable Gold/Black/Rose Gold finish ideal for luxury bathroom accessories and premium bathroom fittings.
Q. Is the KRYSSTAL brass pop-up waste corrosion-resistant?
A. Yes—solid brass with PVD makes the wash basin drain highly corrosion and tarnish resistant, perfect for Indian bathrooms and coastal humidity.
Q. Will the Gold/Black/Rose Gold PVD colour fade or chip?
A. The PVD finish is colour-fast and scratch-resistant; with proper care it resists fading and chipping better than regular electroplating.
Q. Which size fits my basin—does it have a universal fit?
A. Most KRYSSTAL PVD pop-up waste couplings are 1¼" (≈32 mm, BSP)—a universal fit for standard bathroom sink waste holes in India.
Q. How do I choose with overflow or without overflow?
A. If your wash basin has an overflow slot, choose the with-overflow pop-up waste; for basins without an overflow, select non-overflow to ensure proper drainage and sealing.
Q. Is it suitable for hard-water conditions?
A. Yes—the brass pop up waste with PVD finish resists limescale and stains; it’s a durable choice for hard-water areas.
Q. How do I clean a PVD Gold/Black/Rose Gold pop-up drain?
A. Wipe with a soft cloth and mild, pH-neutral soap. Avoid acids, bleach, abrasive pads, and harsh bathroom cleaners to preserve the luxury PVD finish.
Q. Does it help with faster drainage and odor control?
A. The precision pop-up mechanism and smooth bore enable quick water exit, reducing standing water and minimizing odors in the bathroom sink waste.
Q. How is installation done—DIY or plumber?
A. It’s plumber-friendly: apply PTFE tape to threads, seat the gasket/O-ring correctly, and tighten evenly. Skilled DIY is possible, but professional installation is recommended for a leak-proof seal.
Q. What if I notice seepage after installation?
A. Recheck the gasket orientation, ensure threads aren’t cross-threaded, add fresh PTFE tape, and hand-tighten before final snugging. This resolves most wash basin drain leaks.
Q. Can I open the top to clear clogs?
A. Yes—KRYSSTAL pop-up caps typically unscrew tool-free for quick hair/debris removal, keeping the brass pop up waste performing like new.
Q. Will the PVD finish match my faucet and shower fittings?
A. Absolutely—Gold PVD, Black PVD, and Rose Gold PVD are designed to coordinate with KRYSSTAL’s luxury bathroom accessories and premium shower panels.
