Installation & Care Instructions

FOR WARRANTY ISSUES OR QUESTIONS, CONTACT CAHABA AT (866) 837-2550.

BEFORE YOU START

• Cahaba recommends that all apron front sinks should be installed by an

experienced, professional installer.

• IMPORTANT: The enclosed cutout template will create a counter top opening

with a minimal (1/8” or less) reveal. It is recommended that you discuss with

your installer and agree that the nished appearance is the desired effect.

Cahaba is not responsible for improper sink or counter top installations.

• IMPORTANT: The cabinet must be installed, secured, plumb, and level. The

front sink apron must be secured to the front of the cabinet by attaching

fasteners through the cabinet front and into the support framing. Failure of this

step can lead to product damage.

• IMPORTANT: Long screws may damage adjacent cabinets. Ensure the screws

are long enough to secure the support framing, but short enough not to go

through the walls of adjacent cabinets.

• Cahaba apron front sinks should only be fastened to a solid surface counter

top (i.e. granite, Corian® or Silestone®).

• A custom sink base cabinet and support framing is required for proper

installation. Cahaba recommends providing the cabinet maker with the actual

sink to be installed prior to cabinet fabrication.

• Cahaba is not responsible for sink or counter top if damaged during

installation. Be sure to inspect the sink for damage prior to beginning

installation.

• Metal edges may be sharp – use caution when handling.

• Follow all local plumbing and building codes.
