Elkay Residential DRKADQ2220552LM Drop-in Sink 22in Ada

Product Description

The ELKAY RESIDENTIAL DRKADQ2220552LM is a single bowl drop-in sink constructed from 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel, engineered for demanding institutional and commercial environments. It measures 22 inches by 19.5 inches by 5.5 inches overall, with a bowl interior of 13.5 inches in length and 16 inches in width. A rear center drain sized at 3.5 inches promotes efficient water drainage. The sink ships ready for above-counter installation via a quick-clip mounting system, reducing install time. Manufactured in the USA, it meets ADA accessibility standards and carries a scratch-resistant lustrous finish suited to heavy daily use.

This sink is designed for educational facilities, commercial kitchens, and other high-traffic environments where durability and accessibility are required. The ADA-compliant profile makes it appropriate for accessible restrooms, classroom wet labs, and similar institutional settings. A minimum cabinet cutout of 27 inches is required. The sink is compatible with standard garbage disposals where installation space permits. Large sound-deadening pads reduce basin noise during use, an important consideration in occupied classroom or office environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and verify cabinet dimensions meet the 27-inch minimum before cutting the countertop. The quick-clip mounting hardware secures the sink from above the counter; follow the manufacturer's torque sequence for the clips to ensure a uniform seal with the supplied gasket. Do not overtighten clips on laminate or thin solid-surface countertops without verifying substrate adequacy.
