Understanding T304 Stainless Steel and Protective Feet
The secret to the longevity of the Houzer BG-3200 lies in its marine-grade T304 stainless steel wire construction, which contains high levels of chromium and nickel to naturally fend off rust and corrosion. Think of the protective plastic feet as shock absorbers on a car, lifting the rigid metal grid just high enough off the basin floor so that abrasive food particles and heavy cookware never directly grind against your sink surface. This clever elevation also ensures that water and small debris slide effortlessly underneath the grid toward the rear center drain without pooling.
Installation Guide
Unbox the wire grid and inspect the pre-installed protective plastic feet to ensure all are securely in place.
Lower the grid directly into the basin of your compatible Houzer sink, centering it over the floor.
Lift the grid out of the sink periodically during weekly deep cleaning to wipe down the basin floor.
Check the protective feet every few months for normal wear and rinse away trapped debris under running water.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the grid thoroughly after washing dishes to remove food particles, soap residue, and chemical cleaners.
Gentle Washing Clean the stainless steel wires using a mild dish soap and a soft sponge or microfiber cloth.
Avoid Harsh Abrasives Never use steel wool, wire brushes, or abrasive scouring powders that can scratch the metal finish.
Prevent Rust Spots Do not leave cast iron pans or wet metal utensils sitting directly on the grid for extended periods.
Periodic Drying Wipe the grid dry with a soft towel after cleaning to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
