I just tested my mine and they function perfectly. They don't need to be plumbed. The overflow is built in to the fixture. Note that in plumbing lingo, I was taught that the "sinks" in the bathrooms are called "vantities" because they have an overflow. But the "sinks" in the kitchen and laundry are called "sinks" because they do not have an overflow. I have noticed that, in some of the older Villages houses, the vanities and bathtubs do not have an overflow. I think this may be a plumbing code violation today, but I am not certain.
