Installation Guide

General Recommendations:

Please read installation and care instructions thoroughly. Inspect your sink

for any noticeable

damage before installation. Check all local applicable

plumbing and building codes.

These instructions are based on application to composite material or solid

surface countertop installation only; countertop application to stone, marble,

granite or butcher-block should be referred to an experienced countertop

fabricator for custom installation.

Because Fossil Blu Farmhouse sinks are individually handmade, we suggest

using experienced and professional installers only. For custom cutting of

countertop and installation of the actual sink, on-site installation is also

recommended. Acceptable variances are approximately 1/8 of an inch.

Alignment to the cut-out and precise application and trimming of any

adhesive sealant are critical to a superior fit and finished look. Please take

extra care in this regard.

Fossil Blu Farmhouse sinks require custom order cabinets. Please consult

your cabinet dealer.

Fossil Blu sinks does not accept any liability for damage to countertop, sink

fixture, faucets or personal injury during installation. Warranty is void if

installation instructions are not followed.
