Locate the cold water shut-off valve under the sink. Turn off the cold water supply to the existing kitchen sink.
NOTE: If uncertain about which line supplies the cold water, turn on the hot water to the faucet. Allow the water to heat up and carefully
feel the pipes under the sink. The pipe that remains cool to the touch is the cold water supply.
2
Turn on the cold water faucet on the kitchen sink to release pressure and allow water to completely drain from the line.
