PREPARE

THE

CABINET

Fannhouse

sinks

may

require

custom

cabinetry.

We

recommend

consulting

an

experienced

cabinet

maker

for

assistance.

Providing

the

cabinet

maker

with

the

actual

sink

that

is

to

be

installed

will

ensure

a

custom

fit.

Allow

clearance

for

the

water

supply

lines,

drains

and

a

garbage

disposal,

~

applicable.

Build

a

support

frame

or

install

support

bars

from

front

to

back

along

the

inner

sides

of

the

cabinet.

The

frame

must

support

the

weight

of

the

sink

and

all

attachments.

The

support

frame

should

be

positioned

so

that

when

installed,

the

sink

is

in

line

and

level

with

the

top

of

the

cabinet.

TEMPLATE

AND

CUTOUT

No

template

is

provided

since

each

sink

will

vary

dimensionally

.

After

centering

the

sink,

trace

the

outline

of

the

sink

on

the

counter-top

with

a

pencil

to

use

as

a

guide

for

the

cutout.

Remember

to

allow

clearance

for

any

faucets

and,br

backsplashes.

Cut

the

counter-top

accordingly

.

FINAL

PLACEMENT

Test

fit

the

sink

in

the

opening

that

was

created

in

the

previous

steps.

The

entire

weight

of

the

sink

should

be

supported

by

the

support

frame

.

Verify

that

the

sink

is

in

line

and

level

with

the

top

of

the

cabinet.

Use

shims,

~

needed,

to

level

the

sink

.

Set

the

sink

and

apply

your

sealant

to

fill

in

any

gaps

below

the

sink

front,

and

between

the

sink

and

counter-top

.

Hold

the

sink

in

place

to

secure

.

Place

the

counter-top

onto

the

sink

and

remove

any

excess

sealant

from

all

surfaces

.
