Installation Guide
Ensure your kitchen cabinet is properly measured to accommodate the 30-inch width and curved apron design before beginning installation.
Build a sturdy wooden support framework using 2x4 lumber or a dedicated undermount kit beneath the sink, as fireclay is heavy and requires firm structural backing.
Apply a bead of waterproof silicone sealant around the perimeter where the sink meets the countertop or cabinet to prevent water seepage.
Connect your standard 3.5-inch drain assembly and garbage disposal unit carefully, ensuring all gaskets and washers are tightly secured.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Cleaning Wipe the sink basin down with a soft sponge and mild dish soap after each use to maintain its lustrous shine.
Stain Management Remove stubborn food or coffee residue easily using a gentle non-abrasive cleaner or a mild solution of baking soda and water.
Grid Maintenance Periodically lift out the stainless steel bottom grid to clean underneath and prevent mineral buildup from trapped water droplets.
Scuff Prevention Avoid using harsh steel wool scouring pads or abrasive chemical bleaches that could dull the protective fireclay glaze over time.
Hot Cookware Safety While the sink resists heat up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, always use a trivet for extremely hot cast iron pans straight from high heat sources.
