Portable Basins
Portable basins are great for indoor spaces where you require a basin but don’t want to go through the trouble of installing one. These items can be placed anywhere within and office or a home but, before you run out and purchase one, you will want to ensure that you are taken some important considerations into account.
The Dimensions of the Cabinet
Most portable basins come with a cabinet and this provides you with a place to store cleaning agents and other basin accessories without having to display them to visitors or have them present a danger to children. The dimensions of these cabinets will differ depending on the size of the basin itself and you will need to determine how much space you need before you purchase one of these items. If you are storing the basin within a smaller room, you will need to ensure that it is not too big to fit comfortably into this room.
The Number of Basins
Portable basins can be purchased with individual, duel or triple basins and you should determine your needs before choosing one of these options. If you are simply going to use this basin to wash your hands, you will only need a single basin but if you are going to use it to wash dishes and other tools or appliances, you will need an extra basin or two. The amount of basins will also determine the amount you pay for the item; single basins start from about $799.99 from All Green Manufacturing, while triple basins can be purchased for around $1895 from Cartable Solutions Industries.
Hot or Cold Water
Since these types of basins usually work off bottled water, most of them will only supply cold water but you can purchase hot water basins at a higher cost. If you are going to be washing dishes, tools or appliances in a basin you will need to ensure that you have access to warm water.
The Water Capacity of Portable Basins
Portable basins differ when it comes to water capacities and you will need to determine how big your water storage and waste tank should be in order to prevent having to refill and dispose of the waste too often. If many people are going to be using this basin, you will want to ensure that you have a large water capacity, such as the 10 gallon waste and disposal basin from Cartable Solutions Industries, which costs about $2695.
The Mobility of your Basin
If you are going to be moving your basin up and down on a regular basis, you need to ensure that it comes with a mobile caster that can be attached to the basin firmly and securely. This item will allow you to move your basin wherever you need to without worrying about damaging the product.
Purchasing the Right Basin
Once you have taken all of your needs into consideration you will be able to choose the right basin to suit your needs. Choosing from a larger variety of basins will assist you in finding the right one without having to settle on the “next best thing”.
