Lo Que Necesitarás Las herramientas que necesitarás para instalar tu fregadero de acero inoxidable son pocas y pueden encontrarse normalmente en una caja de herramientas común del hogar. A continuación una lista de lo que necesitarás: ‡Masilla para instalar el borde del fregadero. ‡Masilla de plomero para instalar el grifo y los escurridores. ‡Vara de medir o Regla (de al menos 91 cm). ‡Linterna. ‡Destornillador largo y fino (vástago de al menos 15,24 cm). ‡2 Llaves ajustables, o de extremos abiertos. ‡Llave para tubería. Los tornillos de instalación vienen con el fregadero. PASO UNO Coloca el fregadero boca abajo en la superficie del mostrador. Coloca el fregadero en la posición exacta para la instalación y delinea con un lápiz alrededor del fregadero. PASO DOS Traza la línea de la abertura real 0,79 cm más adentro del borde delineado del fregadero, bordeándolo por completo. PASO TRES Corta dentro de esta línea (siguiendo las instrucciones del fabricante). Si el fregadero viene con una plataforma para grifo, instala el grifo en el fregadero y apriétalo. PASO CUATRO Aplica pasta selladora de silicon alrededor de todo el perímetro de la abertura. Coloca el tazón en la abertura. PASO CINCO Desde debajo del fregadero, coloca una abrazadera cerca del centro, ajústala con la mano lo suficiente como para mantener el fregadero en su lugar. Esto debe hacerse en los cuatro lados. Sujeta el contrapeso de las abrazaderas en su lugar y apriétalo con la mano. (Generalmente 3 abrazaderas en el extremo, el contrapeso dividido igualmente entre la parte frontal y posterior). Coloca las abrazaderas a la misma distancia una de la otra, tanto como sea posible. Para mostrador grueso de 19mm hasta 38mm Elkay recomienda utilizar LK364. PASO SEIS Desde el lado superior, revisa el sello entre el borde y el mostrador. Ajusta las abrazaderas a un punto más alto si es necesario.

Easy Cleaning Instructions Rinsing is the most important part of sink care. An Elkay stainless steel sink finish will retain its original bright appearance if the sink is rinsed thoroughly after each use. “Thorough” rinsing can be done by running the water throughout the sink for a few minutes after each use. Typically, a rinse and towel drying after each use takes care of most everyday clean ups. Recommendations for Proper Maintenance ‡Do...Use only a mild liquid dishwashing detergent with a soft sponge to clean and then thoroughly rinse the sink. ‡Do... Rinse thoroughly after each use. “Thorough” rinsing can be done by running water for a few minutes and rubbing the cleaned area with a sponge. ‡Do... Towel dry after each use to prevent mineral deposits from build- ing up on the surface of the sink. ‡Do Not...Allow liquid soap or other household cleansers to dry on the sur- face of the sink. Most brands contain chemical additives which will affect the original finish. ‡Do Not ...Use solutions of chlorine bleach and water in the sink. Chlorides, which are found in most soaps, detergents, bleaches, and cleansers, are very aggressive to stainless steel. If left on the sink too long they can cause surface pitting. ‡Do Not...Use a steel wool pad to clean your sink. Steel wool pads have a tendency to break apart and small particles of steel can become embedded in the surface of the sink. The steel particles will rust and will give the appearance that the sink itself is rusting. ‡Do Not...Use abrasive cleansers or abrasive pads as it will scratch the surface. ‡DoNot...Leave wet sponges, cloths, or cleaning pads on the sink. This can lead to surface rust. Following these recommendations for the care and cleaning of your stainless steel sink will insure that it will provide you with many years of service. Chlorides Today, chlorides are found in most all soap, detergents, bleaches and cleansers; chlorides can be oppressive to stainless steel. However, chlo- rides are very water soluable. Therefore, THOROUGH RINSING of your sink after each use to remove any chloride residue and a weekly scouring is all that is required to keep your sink looking bright and shiny. Water Quality The quality of your water can affect your sink’s appearance. If your water has a high iron content, a brown surface stain can form on the sink giving the appearance of rust. Additionally, in areas with a high concentration of minerals, or with over-softened water, a white film may develop on the sink. To combat these problems, we suggest that the sink be towel dried after use. Discoloration, Rust and Possible Pitting Wet sponges, cloths, cleaning pads and rubber mats left on the sink can lead to discoloration. Steel wool pads should never be used to clean your sink as they leave small iron particles in the grain lines which rust and can damage the sink. Continued usage in this manner may eventually lead to the sink itself rusting and pitting. Liquid Soap Do not allow concentrated liquid detergent to dry on your sink. Most brands contain chemical additives which will affect the original finish. Spotting The quality of your water can affect your sink’s appearance. In areas with hard water, a brown surface stain can form on the sink giving the appear- ance of rust. This phenomena also occurs in water with high iron content. Additionally, in areas with a high concentration of minerals, or with over- softened water, a white film may develop on the sink. To combat this problem, we suggest that the sink be towel dried after use. Foods Heavy salt concentration or foods containing high levels of salt should not be allowed to dry onto the sink surface. Rinse your sink thoroughly after use.
