Installation Guide
Wait until you physically receive the sink before cutting your countertop, as natural fireclay dimensions may vary slightly during the high-heat firing process.
Ensure your cabinetry features a minimum 21-inch wide sink base cabinet to safely support the 18-inch dimensions and weight of the basin.
Use appropriate structural support framing inside the cabinet to bear the weight of the fireclay construction securely.
Connect your standard plumbing lines and garbage disposal directly, keeping in mind that no special flange extension is required.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Cleaning Wipe the sink down with a soft cloth or sponge using mild dish soap and warm water after each use.
Stain Prevention Rinse away coffee, tea, and dark sauces promptly to keep the non-porous glaze looking pristine.
Grid Maintenance Periodically remove the protective bottom grid to clean underneath and prevent mineral buildup.
Scuff Removal Treat stubborn marks or minor metal transfer from pots using a mild, non-abrasive cream cleanser.
Harsh Chemical Avoidance Refrain from using steel wool, scouring pads, or harsh chemical bleach that could dull the glossy finish.
