Installation
The Kohler K-3350-NA sink is designed for undermount installation. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper sealing and support.
- Preparation: Ensure your base cabinet has a minimum width of 36 inches. Verify that the countertop opening is correctly sized for the undermount sink.
- Mounting: Apply a continuous bead of silicone sealant around the rim of the sink. Position the sink under the countertop opening.
- Securing: Use the provided installation hardware (clips and fasteners) to secure the sink firmly to the underside of the countertop. Tighten fasteners evenly to create a watertight seal.

Care and Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your stainless steel sink, follow these care guidelines:
- Daily Cleaning: Wipe the sink with a soft, damp cloth and a mild dish soap after each use. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
- Avoid Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or scouring pads, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface.
- Chemicals: Avoid contact with strong acids, bleach, or harsh chemical cleaners, which can damage the finish.
- Prevent Stains: Rinse the sink immediately after contact with acidic foods (e.g., citrus, tomatoes) or harsh chemicals.
- Scratch Prevention: While stainless steel is durable, it can scratch. Using a sink rack (such as the recommended K-6386) can help protect the bottom of the bowls.
