Vanity Top Installation Instructions
Natural Quartz and Natural Granite
Thank you for purchasing a Transolid
®
Vanity Top. Please read the instructions carefully
prior to installing the top. These are basic instructions for installation in a step-by-step
sequence that will work in most types of installations. If you have an installation that is
not covered here, please contact Transolid for additional information.
Tools and Supplies Needed for Installation
Silicone Caulk Shims / Blocks
1. Unpack the vanity top and inspect it for any damage. Report any
damage to your place of purchase.
2. Make sure the top sits securely on the cabinet. Transolid recom-
mends using shims in areas where there is not a solid point of
contact or where the top is not level on the cabinet.
3. Install the faucet and the drain assembly according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
4. Wipe off the top of the vanity cabinet with a damp cloth to remove
any dirt. Apply a generous (1/2”) bead of silicone around the top
edges of the vanity cabinet. See Figure 1.
5. Carefully lower the top onto the vanity cabinet, making sure
that the shims stay in place. See Figure 2.
6. Attach the drain pipe to the drain assembly. Attach the water
supply lines to the faucet.
7. If back splash is to be installed, do so at the this time. Test t the
back splash to determine proper t, and which side will face out
and which side will face the wall.
8. Wipe the bottom of the back splash and the top of the vanity with
a damp cloth to remove any dust or dirt.
9. Apply a thin (1/4”) bead of silicone along the bottom edge of the
back splash and several thin beads along the back (wall) side of the
splash. Set the back splash into place.
10. If side splashes are to be installed, follow steps 7-9.
11. Apply a thin bead of caulk around all of the joints, such as the
one between the top of the back splash and the wall, the side
splash and the wall, the vanity top and the back splash, and the
vanity top and the side splash. See Figure 3.
