• Elkay recommends that undermount sinks be installed by a professional, experienced installer.

• Due to the custom nature of this type of installation, no cutout template is included. Elkay recommends providing

the cabinet maker with the actual sink to be installed prior to the cabinet fabrication. It is recommended that the

sink be installed per one of the below installation proﬁles shown below. It is further recommended that the

installer(s) discuss this with the customer and agree that this ﬁnished appearance is the desired eﬀect. Elkay is

not responsible for improper sink or countertop installations.

• 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 installation phase.

• Elkay undermount sinks should only be fastened to a solid surface countertop (i.e. granite / Corian

). Elkay

recommends that the sink cutout and mounting holes be cut by the countertop fabricator prior to installation.

• Elkay is not responsible for the sink or countertop if damaged during installation.

• Metal edges may be sharp. Use caution when handling.

• Follow all local plumbing and building codes.

• Inspect sink for damage prior to beginning installation.
