5. Installation Instructions
Follow these steps for proper installation of your wall-hung sink. It is recommended to have two people for certain steps.
- Prepare the Installation Area: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and structurally sound. Mark the desired height for the sink, considering user comfort and plumbing connections.
- Mark Mounting Points: Hold the sink against the wall in the desired corner position. Use a pencil to mark the locations for the mounting bolts on the wall. Refer to the dimension diagram for precise measurements.
- Drill Holes: Using an appropriate drill bit for your wall material, drill pilot holes at the marked locations.
- Install Mounting Bolts: Insert the mounting bolts into the drilled holes. Ensure they are securely fastened and protrude sufficiently to accommodate the sink and washers.
- Mount the Sink: Carefully lift the sink and align the mounting holes on the back of the sink with the installed bolts. Slide the sink onto the bolts.
- Secure the Sink: Place washers and nuts onto the mounting bolts and tighten them evenly until the sink is secure against the wall. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the ceramic.
- Install Faucet and Drain: Install your chosen faucet into the pre-drilled 1 3/8" faucet hole. Install the drain assembly into the 1.75" drain opening, followed by the P-trap and connecting it to the wall drain pipe. Ensure all plumbing connections are sealed properly to prevent leaks.
- Seal Edges: Apply a bead of silicone sealant along the edges where the sink meets the wall to create a watertight seal and finish the installation.
- Test for Leaks: Once all connections are made and sealant has cured, slowly turn on the main water supply and check for any leaks around the faucet, drain, and P-trap connections.

7. Maintenance and Care
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your ceramic sink, follow these care guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Clean the sink regularly with a soft cloth or sponge and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemical products (e.g., strong acids, alkalis, or drain cleaners) as these can damage the ceramic surface.
- Rinse Thoroughly: After cleaning, rinse the sink thoroughly with clean water and wipe dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
- Prevent Scratches: Avoid dropping heavy or sharp objects into the sink, which could chip or scratch the ceramic.
- Wipe with Dry Cloth: For daily care, simply wipe the surface with a dry cloth.
