Thank you for this. I didn't even think about going from two drains to one so you saved me a much worse headache.

Just finished installing mine. Same sink from Costco too. I got the same kit to do the install and it made my life so much easier. Only difference is my dishwasher is attached to the garbage disposal, 1 extra easy step. Also, I’ve never done any plumbing work before in my life so it was a good learning moment

pro tip: install the faucet into the sink before installing the sink. much easier.

Thank you good sir! You just saved me some trouble.

Just a side comment but you can buy inexpensive peel and stick floor tile and place on the cabinet floor, seal it with silicon. This way if the sink plumbing ever leaks, it will not ruin the cabinet. Just an idea for anyone for underneath sink protection. Great video gents.

Super helpful tutorial. I put in the same sink the other day and this made the process easier on me. Pretty quick install.

Fantastic thank you! Glad this was helpful yay!

Some feedback for anyone doing this themselves. I had an old tile countertop that presented a unique set of challenges. The original sink was an over mount but tile was installed over the top edges of the sink. Had to cut the tile from the top to access the sink and remove it. To do this i had to purchase an angle grinder and diamond blade. This will kick up tons of dust so prepare ahead of time. The sink clips the Kohler sink came with werent long enough...so i bought longer ones at home Depot. Those still weren't long enough. After some research you don't "need" them if your installing over the top. . This might be up for debate but with my setup it just wasn't happening. My sink didn't come with the garbage disposal drainage ...it came with a strainer. You can use your old one ...but who wants an old crusty one in their new shiny sink? So i bought one for twenty bucks. Put tape over the edges of the sink to prevent excess silicone from getting on there once you seal it. Also make sure all your pipes are in place and install as much as you can before sealing it. Last thing you want is to move the sink around after you secured it in place.

SUPER!!! Glad it was helpful, hope it gave confidence to the process.

You currently have a "S trap". I would add an "AAV" on a "T" to make a "P trap" for proper ventilation and water flow. If you are in the untied states "S traps" are illegal and not to code. There are videos on KZread that shows you how to go from a "S trap" to a "P trap"

They got two drains coming out the wall in the video. You can block one and use the other.

Thank you bro super helpful tutorial. I learned a lot but why does the P-trap drain look weird and didn’t the sink come with a basket strainer what happened to that?

You can put the clamps in after you drop it.

Super helpful. How did you deal with the air gap from the dishwasher?

@Self-taught_Therapy

Thanks I'm glad you like the video. The dishwasher line was untouched, so there no air gap. We went from a duo sink to a single bowl so he had to close the extra pipe line with a cap adapter. I hope that answer your question.

Will it be ideal to get rid of the airgap and just do a high loop instead? Im planning to do that on mine

Good job , however that P trap is no p trap its an S trap. An S trap can suck the water down out of the trap leaving you with sewer gas.

The box saids top mount/undermount sink. Can it be installed as an undermount sink or does it half to be undermount?

If the box said undermount, then you can install it. You probably need sink caulking for undermount installation.

Why did you decide to use silicone underneath the edge of the sink instead of plumbers putty ?

@Self-taught_Therapy

Жыл бұрын

Great question. I simply don't want the sink to have any movements or any kind of debris to get under the sink. Plus, the silicone is waterproofing the metal sink edge, which prevents rusting. Hope that answers yours question.

was the disposal hard to get mounted up?

Did the faucet have any flex once you installed it? I see someone reinforced it with a piece of plywood underneath since the metal is thin

@Self-taught_Therapy

Жыл бұрын

You can reinforce with a block of wood, but the caulking and the bracket are a super strong no need for extra support.

The one I'm install right now for my friends mom didn't even come with those clamps 🙃

There no air gap illegal and has s trap illegal.

No soap dispenser, oh no I just bought one, watching video to install

I don't think i have the room for the sink. I don't have 36" width.
