Units and worktops
The kitchen units have been especially manufactured for Park Hill by Construction HUB Ltd.
In the event of any problems with the kitchen units outside of the 12 month defect period or requirements for additional components, please contact the kitchen supplier.
Care and maintenance
Doors
Occasional marks can, in most cases, be removed with a soft damp cloth. More persistent marks can be removed using a mild solution of water and household detergent and dried with a soft cloth. Never use solvents or abrasive cleaners, as these could permanently damage the finish.
Carcasses
Do not use polish on any of the surfaces. Only clean the
surface with a damp soapy cloth. Bleaches, scouring pads and
multi-surface cleaners should not be used. Always clear away
concentrated juice, corrosive liquid and food colourant spills,
including water, as prolonged exposure can mark the surface.
Drawers, runners, doors and hinges
These should be wiped out with a damp soapy cloth and wiped
dry. The roller runners are lubricated and should not be cleaned
with a degreasing agent, as this may impair their function. Never
lean on partially or fully open doors and drawers. The hinges are
only designed to support the door. If a waste bin is required,
please use one supported by the carcass and not attached to the
door.
Cupboard door hinges
If the cupboard door feels unsteady or is poorly fitted, this is
typically because the hinges require adjustment; carefully adjust
the screws on the hinge to bring the door back into alignment.
Stiff hinges can be eased using a suitable lubricant.
Wall mounted shelf
The wall mounted shelf in the kitchen contains the cooker hood.
The shelf has been designed to use as storage. Please note a
single point load on this shelf should not exceed 20kg (e.g. a
single item of kitchen equipment stored on the shelf should not
exceed 20kg in weight).
The total load on the shelf should not exceed 50kg and this load
must be evenly distributed across the length of the shelf.
Worktops
The worktop joints and inserts are not guaranteed against water
ingress, which can lead to damage. Therefore, moisture should
be avoided in surface joints (e.g. between two worktops or at the
joint with the splashback) and spillage or standing water should
be wiped off immediately. Do not rest hot pans or use knives on
the worktop without suitable protection, otherwise the laminate
surface may be permanently damaged. Please take care not
to drag items across the worktop surface as this may lead to
scratching and always use an appropriate utensil (i.e. a chopping
board) to prevent marks and cosmetic damage to the worktops.
Stainless steel sinks, drainers and chrome taps
These are best cleaned with warm soapy water, wiped dry and
then buffed with a soft cloth to restore the polished surface. If
undiluted disinfectant and bleaches spill on to the sink or taps,
they will leave a permanent stain, if not removed immediately.
Persistent water stains may be removed with vinegar and the sink
should then be rinsed with water and detergent.
Glass splash back
Clean with mild detergent or non - abrasive cleaner.
Notes
Use of hob
To avoid damage to the kitchen units and surrounding finishes do
not switch the ceramic hob on before placing a pan on the
ring(s) to be heated. Similarly, do not leave the hob switched on if
there are no pans on the heated ring(s).
