Installation Guide
Verify that your cabinetry supports an 18-inch cabinet base and your countertop cutout matches the internal bowl dimensions of 9-7/8 inches by 15-3/4 inches.
Apply a continuous bead of high-grade silicone sealant around the top rim of the sink before pressing it firmly against the underside of the countertop.
Secure the undermount sink using appropriate mounting hardware designated for heavy fireclay fixtures.
Connect the 3-1/2 inch center drain and the included stainless steel basket strainer to your plumbing line, checking all seals for secure water tightness.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Cleaning Wipe down the fireclay surface daily with a soft sponge, warm water, and mild dish soap to prevent residue buildup.
Grid Maintenance Periodically remove the included stainless steel wirecraft bottom grid to clean underneath and prevent mineral deposits.
Stain Management Address stubborn marks or water spots using a mild, non-abrasive cream cleaner or a baking soda paste.
Harsh Chemical Avoidance Refrain from using harsh scouring powders, steel wool, or aggressive chemical bleach that could dull the glossy glaze over time.
