Elkay ECTRUF32179RFBC Farmhouse Kitchen Sink

Product Description

The ELKAY ECTRUF32179RFBC is a 60/40 double bowl farmhouse-style kitchen sink constructed from 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel. It measures 35-7/8 inches x 20-1/4 inches x 9 inches overall, with one bowl at 17 x 17 inches and a smaller bowl at 12 x 17 inches, both 9 inches deep. Tight corners and a flat bottom maximize usable basin area and simplify cleaning. An offset drain configuration supports disposal installation and improves undercabinet clearance. Sound-deadening pads and an applied undercoating reduce operational noise. Licensed plumbers and experienced kitchen remodelers are the primary installers for this type of fixture.

This sink is suited for residential kitchen applications where a farmhouse apron-front profile is specified. The extra-deep 9-inch bowls handle large cookware, baking sheets, and high-volume dishwashing tasks. The 60/40 bowl split provides a dedicated prep or soaking basin alongside a larger primary wash basin. A minimum cabinet cutout of 36 inches is required for proper installation. The package includes the LKAV2061CR faucet, two LKDD deep strainer drains, and custom-fit bottom grids CTXBG1116 and CTXBG1616 for basin protection and organization.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply at the main or under-cabinet shutoff valves before beginning any sink removal or installation work. Verify cabinet rough opening dimensions and confirm countertop cutout measurements against the sink template before cutting. Do not overtighten drain fittings or mounting hardware, as this can deform the sink deck or damage sealant integrity.
