BOVIGGEN Sink Installation and Care
Design and Quality IKEA of Sweden
Installation Advice
- Installation should be performed by a qualified installer.
- Build supports and attach them to the cabinet frame to support the sink's weight.
- Carefully position the sink within the frame to ensure it is centered.
- Ensure the sink is level with the cabinet frame. The top of the sink should be at the same height as the top of the cabinet for proper countertop installation. Adjust the sink and its support accordingly.
- The sink should be level with the cabinet, but the exact positioning depends on the faucet style and personal preference.
- Countertop installers should apply sealant to the top of the sink and the bottom of the countertop to prevent water penetration.
- Ceramic sinks are kiln-fired, making each piece unique. Dimensions may vary slightly from those indicated.
