The Ultimate Guide to Faisal Sanitary Fittings: Engineering Excellence, Durability & Modern Bathroom Design

When it comes to making decisions regarding a home construction or bathroom renovation project in Pakistan, nothing can be as pivotal as choosing the right sanitary fittings. The fixtures you choose have to withstand the forces of water pressure, humidity, temperature variations and cleaning chemicals every day. When a poor choice is made, the drips will last, the surface will corrode, it will fail early, and it will be a hassle to replace. A good selection however, can stand for years, years without any maintenance and will keep the bathroom looking as fresh and beautiful as when it was installed.

Faisal Sanitary Fitting Industries (Pvt) Ltd has been a reliable name in the construction and renovation industry in Pakistan since 1974 and is known for its reliability, precision engineering and quality. With over 50 years of manufacturing experience, Faisal sanitary fittings are the preferred choice for homeowners, interior designers, architects and large-scale developers who appreciate the performance of their fittings over the long haul without compromising on the elegance of modern-day design.

A Legacy of Manufacturing Expertise

Faisal Sanitary was started in 1974 with a vision to manufacture world-class sanitary fittings that fulfill the actual demands of the various residential and commercial building sector in Pakistan. Over the years, it has grown to be a symbol of quality and reliability, and is relied upon by consumers across the country, in housing societies as well as 5-star hotels, commercial complex buildings and government infrastructure projects.

Faisal's advantage over other players is its constant striving to optimize manufacturing techniques, to source high quality raw materials and to ensure the quality of each product just before it reaches the factory gates. They have two major technologies that determine their products.

Automated Gravity Die Casting is a highly accurate metal forming process for the manufacture of complex, high integrity parts from non-ferrous brass alloys. The casting process achieves greater dimensional accuracy, less internal porosity and high structural integrity than lower cost casting processes, and is done using permanent metal molds. For sanitary fittings it means uniform thickness, high pressure strength and a shape and finish that will withstand the test of time.

Advanced Arc Deposition Electroplating is more than just chrome plating. This high technology surface treatment process provides a dense, uniform chrome layer on the brass base to produce a harder, more adherent, and much more durable chrome surface than traditional electroplating. The result is a shiny surface that remains bright and doesn't tarnish, oxidate or corrode from saline mists even under the most humid bathroom scenarios in Pakistan. As part of its quality assurance procedure, every Faisal fitting undergoes tests for saline mist corrosion.

Faisal's Special Characteristics

Premium Brass Alloys: All Faisal fittings are made from premium, non-ferrous brass, which has natural properties of corrosion resistance, strength and excellent machinability. The cheap alternatives include zinc alloys that can be subjected to dezincification, also known as corrosion which over time forms pores in the metal that weaken it. This is not the case with Faisal, who is dedicated to using high quality brass.

10-Year Manufacturing Warranty: Faisal provides a 10-year warranty from manufacturing defect on all its products which is one of the most complete warranties given by any sanitary fittings manufacturer in Pakistan. Not a trick job — they feel confident in their production and quality control. For the homeowner, and the developer, it means 10 years of coverage for manufacturing problems.

Leak-Proof Precision Engineering: One of the most common complaints from low-quality fittings is the constant dripping and it's a simple one to avoid. A ceramic disc cartridge and precision-machined valve seat give a positive, leak-free seal for thousands of open and closed cycles. All fittings are pressure tested before leaving the factory to guarantee that all seals, joints and in-house components function flawlessly under any water pressure that can be applied in the plumbing systems of Pakistan.

Durable, Hygienic Chrome Finish: The arc deposition chrome finish is also a protective finish. It is non-porous and bacteria won't adhere to its surface, which makes it easier to keep clean and hygienic. Years of normal cleaning will not pit, peel or dull it, even when it's reflected.

Selecting the Suitable Fittings for a Project

With a wide selection of products available from basin mixers to bath mixers, shower sets to in-wall systems and full bathroom sets from the same range, Faisal has solutions for all project types and design aesthetics. The following is a practical guide to make your decision:

• Check Water Pressure: Water pressure may differ from one area to another in the urban areas of Pakistan. Ask your plumber to make the static and dynamic readings at the point of use before you choose your fittings — this will ensure compatibility and optimum flow.
• Coordinate Your Finish: Coordinate the faucet finish with other bathroom finishes, such as towel rails, toilet roll holders, and mirror frames for a harmonious and intentional overall design. Both modern and classic environments go with high-polish chrome.
• Plan Concealed Installations Early: In-wall mixer installations should have the rough-in valve installed prior to tiling. Make sure to check plate and rough-in positions with your plumber and tiler before installing a tile to avoid costly and disruptive corrections after tiling.
• Think in Terms of Total Cost of Ownership: A low cost fitting that fails after three years is more expensive to run over 10 years, than a Faisal fitting, with a 10-year warranty. The condition of sanitary fittings may also have a direct impact on the worth and marketability of a completed product.
• Grey-Market and Counterfeit Fittings: Identical fittings which appear to be Faisal brand are available in the market but are not covered by Faisal's warranty. Buy from reputable and authorized sellers to ensure that you are getting a genuine product and the full warranty.

A Few Tips to Maintain the Investment You Made

Simple, regular maintenance is beneficial even for the best fittings. Use a soft microfibre cloth and a mild soapy water to clean chrome without mineral spotting or soap residue build-up. Rinse and buff to keep the mirror finish.

Do not use scouring pads, bleach or acidic descalers on chrome surfaces, they will remove the electroplated finish and will invalidate your warranty.

To remove limescale deposits, remove and soak tap aerators every now and then in a diluted white vinegar solution in hard water areas. If flow rate or stiffness decreases while using a tap, get a qualified plumbing professional right away to check and replace the cartridge, as the valve seat will continue to wear out otherwise.
