Installation Guide
General Recommendations:
Please read installation and care instructions thoroughly. Inspect your sink
for any noticeable damage before installation. Check all local applicable
pl
umbing and building codes.
These instructions are based on application to composite material or solid
surface countertop installation only; countertop application to stone, marble,
granite or butcher-block should be referred to an experienced countertop
fabricator for custom installation.
Because Fossil Blu Farmhouse sinks are individually handmade, we suggest
using experienced and professional installers only. For custom cutting of
countertop and installation of the actual sink, on-site installation is also
recommended. Acceptable variances are approximately 1/8 of an inch.
Alignment to the cut-out and precise application and trimming of any
adhesive sealant are critical to a superior fit and finished look. Please take
extra care in this regard.
Fossil Blu Farmhouse sinks require custom order cabinets. Please consult
your cabinet dealer.
Fossil Blu sinks does not accept any liability for damage to countertop, sink
fixture, faucets or personal injury during installation. Warranty is void if
installation instructions are not followed.
