Installation Guide
Ensure your cabinetry is prepared with an appropriate apron style base cabinet and supportive cradle prior to sink placement.
Keep in mind that fireclay dimensions are nominal and may vary by up to 0.25 inches, so dry fit your basin carefully before final securing.
Check your waste setup since the bottom thickness of the fireclay may require an extended flange disposal drain or an extended ferrule regular kitchen drain.
Connect your standard 3.5 inch center drain assembly securely, noting that the drain is sold separately from the sink itself.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the single bowl thoroughly with warm water and wipe it down with a soft microfiber cloth after each heavy cooking session.
Gentle Cleaners Use mild dish soap or non-abrasive liquid cleansers applied with a soft sponge to preserve the glossy white finish.
Stain Prevention Avoid letting coffee, tea, or dark food residues sit drying in the basin for extended periods to maintain the bright surface.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals Steer clear of harsh scouring powders, steel wool pads, or aggressive chemical bleach that could dull the glazed ceramic coating.
Protective Grids Consider placing a fitted sink grid inside the basin to cushion heavy cast-iron cookware from direct impact.
