The plywood should be fixed at the heights as
shown below. This will provide sufficient support
and will allow the Monolith to be installed to
comply with the current ADA / ANSI regulations.
4
Apply a bead of wall panel adhesive at 2” centers to
the plywood as shown and then the wall finish
(drywall, plywood etc) can now be fitted in the in the
normal manner.
1
The wall section where the Monolith is to be
mounted should be constructed using back-to-
back studs to provide the additional support that is
needed. These studs should be fixed to each other
in accordance with the recommendations of the
manufacturer of the wall system. 2 thicknesses of
¾” plywood blocking must be fixed to the wall frame
where the Monolith will be mounted.
3
Cut a saw-kerf width slot in the face of one of the
sections of plywood to accept the flange on steel
studwork, as shown. Fix the plywood to the steel
stud using appropriate wall-construction
hardware. The second layer of plywood is now to
be fitted to the back of the 1st piece using flat-
head woodscrews at 6” centers.
monolith c series
before you install / steel stud wall
The wall structure that the Monolith is to be fixed to should be sufficiently strong to support the weight of
the Monolith. Refer to table on page 5 for weight of the Monolith.
It is recommended that a minimum of a 4” void is allowed behind the fixing wall for ease of access to
the plumbing connections. It is also recommended that access panels are created as part of the wall
construction to allow for initial installation and maintenance of the fittings. Depending on the individual
installation, the access panel could be either above or below the Monolith.

The timber blocking should be mounted at
heights as shown below. This will provide
sufficient support and will allow the Monolith to
be installed to comply with the current ADA /
ANSI regulations.
1
The wall section where the Monolith is to be fixed
should be reinforced using 2” x 12” timber blocking
to provide the additional support that is needed.
3
The wall-finish (drywall, plywood etc) can now be
fitted in the normal manner.
monolith c series
before you install / timber stud wall
It is recommended that a timber stud framework is constructed to support the Monolith using construction-
grade 2” x 4” studs. This will leave enough void within the wall for the required services for the plumbing
installation.
For maximum strength, it is better if the studs can be fitted at centers corresponding to the mounting points
for the Monolith brackets. If this is not possible, then the wall must be strengthened as below.

1. Ensure a water supply is provided to suit the taps in use with Monolith.
2. A waste water connection and appropriate trap is required to connect to the 1 ½” NPT thread on the
waste funnel. The trap should conform to the current local plumbing codes.
3. Water supply pipes for wall-mounted faucets should be within the wall void to best allow for
connection.

The bracket centers given in the table are a
suggested guideline, and can be moved within
a tolerance of +/- 2” to suit the wall conditions
and the position of the waste outlet.
The outer end brackets should be fitted 4” in
from each end; the next bracket in is to be
fitted at 24” from end of the Monolith. All other
brackets are to be at 24” centers between the
2nd bracket in from each end.
Other sizes of Monolith are fitted in the same
manner. The 90" 3-user TSL.MON.C.90 is
pictured for all examples in this guide. For the
most accurate bracket spacing guide, please
refer to the shop drawings for your project.

Drill the wall to accept the 3/8” x 2” lag screws.

Ensure all brackets are level with each other
lengthwise, at the correct height, and mounted
securely so that there will be no gap between the
Monolith and the wall surface.
1
Mark the bracket mounting points on
the wall.
3
Attach the brackets through the mounting slots
with the lag screws using the height adjustment to
ensure that all the brackets are all level and fitted
at the same height. It is critical that the brackets
are level with one another to ensure that water
drains properly out of the basin.

Lift the Monolith onto the brackets and make
sure the T-slot bolts pass through the slots on
the mounting brackets
8
Once the Monolith is correctly in place, tighten the
nuts and bolts in the T-slot pads.
5
With the Monolith placed face-down, fit all waste
funnels and gaskets to the funnel adapter plates
on the underside of the basin. Install one bolt into
each T-slot pad.
Ensure that the sealing gasket is correctly fitted
into the recess on the funnel and tighten the four
bolts.
7
When the Monolith T-slot pads are resting on the
brackets, slide the Monolith towards the wall until
the rear edge is flush with the wall. Any side to side
adjustments should be done at this point as well.

operation
The user is to activate the faucet, either an automatic sensor faucet or a manual faucet, allow the water to
flow and wash their hands in the normal manner.
maintenance
The Monolith should be periodically inspected for any damage. Also, the Monolith should be tested to
ensure that the water drains out of the basin, and that the drainage waterways are not blocked with any
debris.

16 MONOLITH BASIN SYSTEM MANUAL
cleaning
The Splash Lab Monolith basins are matte/satin finish, unless otherwise specified at manufacture. The
surface can be cleaned with a mild solution of soapy water, ammonia-based cleaners or most commercially
available solid-surface cleaners. These will remove most dirt and other residue from the surface.
Cleaning Techniques
+Washing with soap and water is usually sufficient to remove surface dirt or stains.
+Ammonia based liquid cleaner (not window cleaner) can also be used. Always rinse surface thoroughly
and wipe dry.
+Drying is an important step, preventing a build-up of soap film or cleaning residue, which can create the
appearance of light scratches over time.
+Stubborn soap film or cleaning residue build-up on solid surfaces are easily removed with abrasive
cleaners and a white abrasive pad or sponge.
+For darker colors, a polish may be used to enhance the shine. For areas where there is the possibility of
contact with food, a polish formulated for use in food-contact areas must be used. Where food contact
is not likely to occur, a simple furniture polish can be used. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions
for using the polish and for safety concerns.
Cleaning Agents
The Splash Lab solid surface is unaffected by common household and commercial cleaners such as:
+Powdered abrasive cleaners
+Ammonia
+String detergents
+Oxalic acid solutions
+Dilute hydrochloric acid solutions
+Dilute trisodium phosphate solutions
Acid drain cleaners may cause damage
repairs
Severe scratches can be removed using 180G abrasive paper in a circular motion on the affected area.
Most other damage or chips to The Splash Lab Solid Surface material can be repaired with no visible
evidence.
Please contact The Splash Lab technical department for damage evaluation and repairs.

MONOLITH BASIN SYSTEM MANUAL 17
damage prevention
Some chemicals are not compatible with The Splash Lab solid surface. Contact should be avoided with the
following chemicals:
+Strong chlorinated solvents
+Chloroform
+Ketones
+Methylene chloride (paint removers)
+Very strong acids such as concentrated sulphuric and hydrochloric acids
+Acid drain cleaners should not be used.
Surfaces exposed to these agents should be promptly flushed with water. Contact for even a short period of
time can cause surface damage, spots, or staining. Follow the recommended repair procedures described
above as needed to repair and/or restore the surface to its original condition. Severe damage caused by
incompatible chemical contact will require professional repair. Again, contact The Splash Lab technical
department for assistance.
