We just bought 3 new Decolav sinks (series 1625) and 3 Decolav 9297 drains. The MAJOR problem is that the drain (a push-button closing umbrella drain with overflow) has an overflow hole that empties directly out the overflow holes - with nothing to catch the water - except the countertop's wood or the cabinet floor below.

I can't begin to understand how this stupid overflow drain is supposed to work. Help!!

Here's the instruction manual for the drain: http://common.csnstores.com/common/marketing/decolav/1110install.pdf

The decolav 1625 did not come up on web page, can you try it again. Your lav drain may need a deferent type of drain assembly. Need to see the lav detail to help. Good luck

Here are the installation instruction for the sink ("1625 series"): http://common.csnstores.com/common/marketing/decolav/1063install.pdf

The instructions show that the recommended drain is a drain with NO ability to be plugged and I need to have a drain that can be closed. Do I need to find a new drain that can be closed but that does NOT have an overflow?
