FOR UNDERCOUNTER INSTALLATIONS
• Undercounter lavatories should be installed
only by experienced installers.
• Do not use adhesives or adhesive sealants
with this product.
• Install so future removal from underneath
the countertop is possible. This will avoid
countertop damage.
FOR TILE-IN INSTALLATIONS
• Due to the variety of installations possible
with this lavatory, you may need to use
procedures other than those described.
Remember, because of the variety of tile
available, you must take careful
measurements prior to installation.
• It is very important that the proper materials
are used with your lavatory. Proper selection
of tile is critical for a good installation.
3/8" (1 cm) tile is recommended. Because
of the variance in tile thickness, your
carpenter, tiler, and plumber must all be
aware of the exact type of tile you choose.
• After selecting the tile, provide a sample to
each contractor involved in the project. It is
very important that the carpenter, tiler, and
plumber maintain good communication and
discuss requirements.
