Step 3: Position the Vanity and Connect Plumbing

Step 4: Secure the Sink Top
Place the vitreous china sink top onto the vanity cabinet. Apply a bead of silicone sealant (not included) around the edges where the sink meets the cabinet to secure it and prevent water infiltration. Allow the sealant to cure according to the manufacturer's instructions before use.
Step 5: Final Checks
Turn on the water supply and check for any leaks. Test the faucet and drain operation. Ensure cabinet doors open and close smoothly.
