Key Features
Custom Fit Design Tailored specifically for Houzer PTU-3600 sink models for a precise and secure fit.
T304 Stainless Steel Construction Manufactured from premium stainless steel to resist corrosion and everyday wear.
Surface Protection Safeguards your kitchen sink floor from unsightly scratches caused by cookware and utensils.
Noise Reduction Cushions the impact of pots and pans to significantly minimize clattering sounds during dishwashing.
Dual Purpose Utility Doubles as a convenient elevated rack for air drying glassware and tableware.
Protective Feet Features integrated feet that elevate the grid and prevent scratching on the basin floor.
Think of the Houzer BG-8600 bottom grid as a suit of armor for your kitchen sink. Just like protective gear absorbs impact before it reaches an athlete, the sturdy stainless steel wires of this grid absorb the kinetic energy of heavy pots and pans. When you place a heavy Dutch oven into the basin, the grid takes the brunt of the contact instead of the sink floor. Furthermore, the integrated protective feet lift the entire wire frame slightly off the surface, allowing water to drain smoothly underneath while preventing metal-on-metal friction. This thoughtful design ensures your sink remains scratch-free and your kitchen stays quieter during high-volume meal preparation and cleanup.
Installation Guide
Unpack the stainless steel bottom grid and inspect it for any shipping damage before use.
Clean your kitchen sink basin thoroughly and dry the surface prior to placing the accessory inside.
Lower the grid gently into the sink, ensuring the protective feet rest evenly on the basin floor.
Lift the grid out periodically during routine weekly sink cleanings to wipe underneath and remove any trapped debris.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the grid with clean water after each use to wash away food particles and soap residue.
Routine Washing Wash the stainless steel surface weekly using mild dish soap and a soft sponge.
Stain Removal Use a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner to gently buff out stubborn water spots or mineral deposits.
Thorough Drying Dry the grid with a soft microfiber towel after washing to maintain its brilliant shine.
Avoiding Harsh Chemicals Never use harsh chlorine bleach, steel wool, or abrasive scouring pads, as they can damage the metal finish.

Elevating Everyday Kitchen Functionality
Investing in a high-quality stainless steel bottom grid is one of the smartest ways to preserve the investment you made in your kitchen sink. Over time, heavy cookware, silverware, and everyday dishwashing can cause micro-scratches and dull the finish of even the most durable stainless steel basins. By acting as a protective barrier, the Houzer BG-8600 absorbs the physical impact of daily kitchen chores, ensuring that your sink surface remains unblemished. Beyond mere protection, the elevated wire design transforms the bottom of your sink into an efficient secondary staging area. Water flows freely underneath the grid toward the drain even when the basin is loaded with dishes, preventing pooling and keeping your workspace sanitary and organized.
