CAREFULLY READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU BEGIN
ATTENTION INSTALLER
• ELKAY recommends that Fireclay sinks should be installed by a professional experienced installer.
• Before installation, please inspect the sink for damage. Do not install a damaged sink.
• WARNING: Due to the dimensional variation inherent in the fireclay manufacturing process, sink cutout
templates are not provided. Elkay recommends using the actual sink for the countertop cutout. It is recom-
mended that you discuss with your customer the desired finished appearance of the sink and countertop
installation. Elkay is not responsible for improper sink and/or countertop installations.
• It is recommended that you discuss with your customer and agree to what the finished effect will be. Elkay
is not responsible for improper sink or countertop installations.
• Elkay Fireclay undermounts must be fastened to solid surface countertops only (i.e., granite).
• Elkay is not responsible for sink and countertop if damaged during installation.
• Fireclay sinks are heavy, please arrange for assistance to move or position.
• Follow all local plumbing and building codes.
Fireclay Farmhouse Apron Undermount Sink Only
• A custom sink base cabinet is required.
• Proper installation requires a coordinated effort including advanced dialog between the designer (or
customer), the cabinet maker, the countertop fabricator and the sink installer during the design and instal-
lation phase.
• Elkay recommends providing the cabinet maker with the actual sink to be installed prior to cabinet fabrication.
• It is required that a support frame be constructed inside the cabinet for adequate support of the sink as
shown in Figure 1.
• Warning: The support frame and proper support for the sink must sufficiently support 300 lbs. This is the
approximate weight of the sink when full.
• Templates are not included however it is recommended that the sink countertop cutout provide a reveal into
the sink bowl opening as shown in Figure 2.
