Key Features
Solid Stainless Steel Construction Offers dependable durability and resistance to rust in wet kitchen environments.
Custom Fireclay Compatibility Engineered to match Whitehaus sink models WHQD540 and WHQDB542 with precision.
Raised Rubber Feet Stands approximately half an inch above the basin floor to prevent direct contact with heavy cookware.
Center Drain Placement Aligns smoothly with standard center drain configurations for effortless water drainage.
Square Drain Shape Accommodates your sink drain cutout cleanly without obstructing water flow.
Surface Protection Shields your sink floor from scratches, stains, and impacts caused by heavy pots and pans.
Understanding Raised Elevation in Sink Protection
Think of this stainless steel protector grid as a sturdy bridge that keeps your cookware safely suspended above the road bed of your sink. By utilizing rubber feet that raise the frame about half an inch off the basin floor, the grid ensures that heavy pots, pans, and cutlery never make direct, abrasive contact with your fireclay surface. Water and food particles flow freely underneath this elevated platform toward the center drain, meaning your dishes rest above the draining runoff rather than sitting directly in residue.
Installation Guide
Unpack the solid stainless steel sink grid and inspect the rubber feet to ensure they are securely attached in all four corners.
Place the 22 inch by 15 inch grid directly into the bottom of your compatible Whitehaus fireclay sink model WHQD540 or WHQDB542.
Confirm that the center square drain cutout aligns properly with your sink drain opening for unobstructed water flow.
Lift the grid out of the basin periodically to wipe down both the sink surface and the rubber feet during routine kitchen cleanings.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the stainless steel grid thoroughly with warm water after washing dishes to remove food particles and soap residue.
Routine Washing Clean the grid weekly using mild dish soap and a soft sponge to maintain its polished metallic appearance.
Rubber Foot Check Periodically inspect the protective rubber feet to ensure they remain clean and firmly seated in place.
Mineral Removal Use a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar to dissolve any hard water spots that accumulate on the metal.
Surface Drying Wipe the grid down with a microfiber cloth after cleaning to prevent water spotting and keep the steel bright.
