REMOVING YOUR OLD LAVATORY  
For new construction begin with INSTALLING YOUR NEW LAVATORY

Iftherearenoshut-offvalvesleadingtothelavatory,youmustturnoffthewateratthemain  
valve. This is usually located in the basement, garage, or near the foundation on the  
outside of the house. It may also be near the water meter.  
Check to be sure the water is off by turning on the faucet where you are working until the  
water stops flowing.  
If you have shut off the main valves in a two-story house or greater, you should open  
another faucet on the same or lower level. Water will then drain from the entire line. This

2.  
Disconnect the drain pipes. Take off as many sections as possible between the  
lavatory and the wall or floor to facilitate removal.  
Place a basin under work area to catch any water that may still be in the drain.  
3. Before removing anything else, check to see how the lavatory is supported. If the  
pipes in the wall are providing support for the lavatory, use care in removing the faucet  
connections. The lavatory may fall once the faucet is disconnected, so have a helper hold  
it up while you work.

of lumber from below. Or you can rig the  
support as shown in Figure 1. This sup-  
port consists of a strong wire or cord  
draped over a 2" x 4". Drop the wire  
Figure 1  
through the drain and tie it to a block of  
wood. Twist the cord until the block of  
wood is snug against the tailpiece and  
provides a sure support for the lavatory.  
You may then unscrew the lugs and lower the lavatory by carefully untwisting the block of  
wood.  
Detach the faucet from the shut-off valves by unscrewing the compression nut at the joints  
between the valves and the water supply tubes.  
If the connection is corroded you may need to cut off the nut with a hacksaw. If there is no  
nut or shut-off valve, use a tube cutter or hacksaw to separate the faucet from the water  
supply tubes.  
Keep the basin and sponge handy for water that remains in the pipe and faucet.

INSTALLING YOUR NEW LAVATORY  
There are many ways to install an undermount sink, and the details of the installation  
will depend on the quality of your cabinets and countertop. This installation guide  
describes only one way of installing an undermount sink. These instructions assume  
that you are working with a base cabinet with no sink or countertop currently installed.  
The countertop you are going to install will also need to have holes cut to accommo-  
date the sink and faucet.  
1. Determine the centerline of the sink position and alignment with cabinet and  
countertop. A template is provided for locating the sink bowls and faucet holes.  
2. Attach two support boards to the  
sides of the cabinet, one in front and one  
in back, placing them 20 1/2" apart and  
equal distances from the centerline (See  
Figure 2, A). Place the boards at the  
proper height to allow the top of the sink  
to be flush with the top of the cabinet. It  
may be necessary for you to reinforce  
the sides of the cabinet for it to support  
the 350-pound minimum.

3. Rest your sink on the support  
boards and slide it from side to side until  
it is centered. At this point, you can also  
check the sink cutout measurements of  
your countertop.  
Figure 2  
4. Now that you have the sink in position, attach two more 20 1/2" boards between  
the support boards (See Figure 2, B).  
5. Shim the sink to bring it to the proper height.  
6. Install the countertop. Put a seal of caulk between the sink and countertop to  
prevent water leaks.  
7. Install the basket strainer. First,  
clean around the drain hole with a damp  
STRAINER BODY  
cloth to remove any dust or other  
particles that may interfere with a  
watertight seal. Remove the washers  
and nuts from the basket strainer. Pack  
the underside of the basket with  
PLUMBERS PUTTY

Plumbers Putty and push it firmly in  
place. Put the large rubber washer over  
the basket threads from under the sink,  
followed by the thin washer (may be  
made of paper, fiber, or metal). Thread  
the large metal lock nut onto the strainer  
body and tighten (See Figure 3).

8. Installer must determine the best way to drill holes in the countertop, ensuring  
proper alignment with the sink without damaging the finished countertop surface.  
9. Install the faucet according to the faucet installation instructions, inserting the  
faucet through the faucet holes in the sink and the countertop. The faucet holes in the  
sink have been enlarged to allow the faucet to be raised through the countertop.  
When the faucet is securely in place, attach the new hot and cold water supply tubes  
to the faucet tubes.  
10. Connect the drain tailpiece to the bot-  
PLUMBERS PUTTY

tom of the pop-up, then fasten the trap and  
drain extension to the wall stub-out in the  
wall. See Figure 4. You may use metal or  
plastic drain pipe and trap, following the  
directions provided by the manufacturer.

11. Use a tube cutter to trim the free ends  
of the hot and cold supply tubes to at least 1/  
4" longer than necessary to reach into the  
inlets of the shut-off valves. It is better to cut  
the tubes longer than needed, then trim  
them again. Remove any burrs or sharp  
edges with an emery cloth.

The supply stop handles cannot extend  
more than 3" (7.6 cm) from the finished wall when in the open position.  
Join the hot and cold water supplies to the shut-off valves as instructed by the faucet  
manufacturer.  
12. Turn on the main water supply then open the shut-off valves. Check all connections  
for leaks. A slight tightening of about 1/4 turn will normally stop any leaks.

CARE AND CLEANING  
For general cleaning, use a mild, nonabrasive soap and warm water. Do not use abrasive  
cleaners. Such cleaners contain sand or silica and will eventually scratch the surface.
