UNDERCOUNTER INSTALLATION
FAUCET CHECK
1.
Check to see if the faucet can be completely assembled
on the countertop being used. Measure the countertop
thickness and the available shank length between the
base of the faucet assembly and the mounting nut. If it
can, proceed with the installation. (If it cannot, select
another faucet or thinner countertop.) See Fig. #1.

1. See Fig. #2. Measure the actual size of the kitchen sink,
including apron (bottom of the apron is approximately
1/8” wider than the top). The cabinet opening should
equal the maximum sink/apron dimensions to ensure a
minimum gap between the sink apron and the cabinet.
Reference the chart in Fig. #2 to determine the cabinet
opening height. The sink dimensions shown on the
cover of these instructions are for reference only.
NOTE
: If sink is not available at time of installation, make
allowances to add wood filler strips/spacers to the cabinet
opening after cabinet is installed and before sink is installed.

2. See Fig. #3. Before proceeding, determine if the sink
will be flush with or extend slightly beyond the front of the
cabinet. The sink may extend beyond the face of the
cabinet 1-1/4” maximum.

3. See Fig. #4. Construct a wood support and frame to fit
inside the cabinet opening. Allow adequate clearance
for water supply lines between support and finished
wall. Locate and cut out drain outlet clearance hole in
support. Location of this hole depends upon sink loca-
tion determined in Step 2.
CAUTION: Risk of personal injury or product dam-
age. The wood support and frame for the sink must suf-
ficiently support 300 pounds (approximate weight of the
fireclay sink when full and a garbage disposal installed).
