DIACCIO NOHP-G017
Please Note:
• Review and abide by all building and plumbing codes.
• Novao sinks need to be installed by a professional.
• Some counters require dierent cung methods; seek
the details of your chosen countertop material.
• Check to make sure the sink is sealed waterght.
Novao’s vessel sinks can be installed sing on the
countertop or recessed - up to a third or even half of the
sinks height. You may want to gure out your ideal vessel
sink height before you begin. The nished height is a
personal preference. Most vanity heights are set at 30”-
32”. Aer a vessel sink is mounted on top of the
counter, the vessel height will be 34”-36” unless it has
been recessed.
• Layout and place the sink and faucet of your choice in
the desired locaon. Using a pencil, mark the boom
of the sink hole and faucet base. Consider the ow of
the faucet when marking the locaon.
• Drill the countertop for sink drain opening with a
1 5/8” drill bit.
• Place the vessel on top of the counter and make sure
the drain ts down inside of the counter. If a
mounng ring is preferred, Novao provides them
in three nishes to match the faucet and drain. The
mounng ring elevates the sink ½”. It also provides
stabilizaon and more cleaning room underneath the
vessel. Due to design consideraons, a mounng ring
is not always necessary. To lower the height of the sink,
simply enlarge the hole. The larger the hole, the more
stability you will also achieve in installaon.
• Use a bead of clear silicone to seal between the
outside edge of vessel where it is mounted to the
mounng ring or counter.
• Use a level to ensure the vessel is level in every
direcon and install the drain.
• Secure the vessel to the counter with fastener on the
drain. Be sure to not over ghten the drain assembly.
Hand ghtening will be sucient. The breakage seen
with vessels is usually related with improper installa-
on of the drain.
When cleaning up aer installaon, do not use abrasive
cleaners. Ideally, the best way to care and keep your sink
like new is to protect it with Glacier Ice. This
nanotechnology will prevent any hard water spots or
oxidaon on the sink and faucet. For everyday cleaning
simply use a so cloth, soap and warm water.
