Attention Installer
1. Read these instructions carefully before installation. Inspect sink for
damages. Do not install if the sink is damaged.
2. Ruvati recommends that installation of apron / farmhouse sinks be
done by a professional installer.
3. Ruvati is not responsible for improper sink or countertop installation.
Ruvati is not liable for any damages to sink or countertop or personal
injury during installation.
4. Due to the special nature of this installation, Ruvati reccomends that
an experienced cabinet maker use the actual sink to build a custom
cabinet or modify an existing cabinet.
5. Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Alignment of sink to cutout is critical for a superior fit and finished look.
Depending on your aesthetic preference, Ruvati sinks can be installed either
with a 1/4” reveal, flush fit, or with a negative reveal (1/4" overhang). Decide on
your prefence prior to installation.

Installation
1. Measure sink apron and cabinet
opening to make sure sink apron will
ft into cabinet opening. If necessary,
sand opening or add wood ler
strips.
2. Prepare the cabinet and create a
support frame inside the cabinet
that the sink will sit on. Use 2x4 solid
wood studs to create the support
frame. Your cabinet and support
frame should be strong enough to
hold up to 200 lbs of weight once
installed. The support frame should
be positioned so that the top of the
sink rim is level and flush with the
top surface of the cabinet perimeter.
Make sure the support frame leaves
room for the drains, faucet water
lines, garbage disposal (if any).
3. Place a thin layer of sealant on the
supporting frame where it will
contact the sink
4. Gently position the sink on the
frame. Verify that the sink sits level
and sturdy on the frame, and the top
surface of the sink is level and flush
with the top surface of the cabinet
perimeter. Adjust or shim between
the sink and support if necessary.
5. Due to the various cutout sizes
possible (based on your preference)
a cutout template is not provided.
Use the actual sink measurement to
determine the actual location of the
cutout. Ensure adequate clearance
behind the sink for any faucet and
backsplash.
6. Trace cut-out opening on the
countertop. Cut out the opening
in the counter top. Use an Orbital
sander or sanding block to smooth
the edge of the cut-out area and
remove all saw marks. For laminate
type countertop, all exposed
unlaminated surfaces near the cut-
out opening must be adequately
fnished and sealed to prevent water
damage.
7. Clean the rim of the sink and the
under surface of the countertop
where it will contact the rim. Apply a
generous bead of sealant around the
sink rim.
8. Gently position the countertop on
the sink. Ensure that the sealant
provides a complete seal between
the countertop and the sink. Wipe off
any extra sealant using a wet cloth,
and apply extra sealant if there are
any gaps

Care and Maintenance
• Clean regularly with normal detergent
and warm water.
• Always make a habit of drying your sink
after use and bung with a soft cloth.
This will ensure that no build up of
limescale or other mineral deposits can
occur.
• Clean the sink once a week using a non-
abrasive cleanser such as Comet and a
clean soft sponge. Scrub in the same
direction as the natural grain of the sink.
• Never let soap or other household
cleaners to dry on the surface of the
sink. Most products contain addatives
which will affect the nish of the sink.
• Never use bleach solutions on the sink,
as it is harmful to stainless steel. If left
on the sink too long it can cause surface
pitting.
• Never use a steel wool pad to clean
your sink. Doing so may damage the
sink’s surface and cause discoloration.
• Minor scratching of the sink’s surface is
extremely dicult to avoid and is not
something to be unduly concerned
about. These marks are usually only
supercial and can be removed with a
proprietary stainless steel cleaner.
• Use of rinse grids will reduce exposure
of the bottom of the sink to scratches.
