Plumbing in a Fracino Cherub

Postby Edward » Tue Jun 21, 2011 9:43 am

Hi guys,

I'm thinking of plumbing in my cherub, problem is I live in a rented house. Fracino sell a kit which looks reasonable enough, does anyone think it would be possible to "saw" out a small circle from the worktop and glue it back in when I move out? Somewhere discreet?

It may be possible though of course it will not be a perfect fit when you reattach it because the drill bit will have cut a mm or two all around from the cut-out 'plug'. You can certainly reaffix it with a piece of timber beneath and some wood filler but how much it shows depends on your drilling skills/equipment and the colour/material of the worktop.

No chance of running the hose around the worktop? Not as aesthetically pleasing but no chance of a lost deposit.
