TOP MOUNT INSTALLATION
1. Preparing the Cabinets
• Make sure that the tank will not interfere with cabinet doors or panels. Ensure
that there is enough space for the water supply installation.
2. Use Template for Cutting Into Counter Top
• Use the actual sink for verification of exact measurements.
• Position template on the countertop surface and trace the cut line with a pencil.
• Make sure that the sink is perfectly centered and the outline is parallel to the
counter.
• Place masking tape along the center of the cut line to avoid chipping or
scratching caused by the cutting tool.
• Cut inside the template line to create the opening.
3. Build a Support Frame
• Quartz sinks need support due to their weight. Install 2x4s underneath the sink to
reinforce it. Create both vertical and horizontal supports.
4. Insert Sink
• Insert sink on to the support frame so that the sinks sits above the countertop,
making sure the height of the sink is acceptable before siliconing the edges.
• Make sure that the sink sits as close as possible to the cabinet top. It should
be hard to slide a piece of paper through the gap between the sink and the
countertop. Once the height is acceptable, proceed to use a silicone-based
sealant.
• Place the sealant on the outside of the sink along the edges where the sink meets
the countertop.
