This thoughtful spacing prevents pooling and keeps your entire workstation hygienic and easy to rinse during busy meal prep sessions.

Lower the grid gently into your compatible Whitehaus fireclay sink, ensuring the center drain cutout aligns properly.
Confirm that the protective rubber feet rest evenly on the flat floor of the sink basin.
Lift the grid out periodically during routine kitchen cleaning to wipe down and rinse both the accessory and the sink surface.

Regular Washing Wash the grid weekly using mild dish soap and a soft sponge to maintain its polished finish.
Rubber Foot Check Inspect the protective rubber feet regularly to ensure they remain securely in place and free of debris.
