Elkay Residential ELXU2522CN0 Undermount Kitchen Sink

Product Description

The ELKAY RESIDENTIAL ELXU2522CN0 is a single-bowl undermount kitchen sink made from a blend of natural quartz sand particles and UV-stable acrylic resins. It measures 24-5/8 inches x 18-1/2 inches x 9-1/2 inches with an extra-deep rectangular bowl designed to handle large cookware, stacked dishes, and meal prep tasks. The chestnut finish delivers a warm, consistent color throughout the material, not just on the surface. The non-porous quartz composite construction resists staining, food particle buildup, and bacterial growth. A rear drain placement maximizes usable bowl space and cabinet clearance below. Licensed plumbers and experienced remodelers typically handle this type of undermount installation.

This sink is suited for residential kitchen installations where an undermount configuration is preferred for a clean, seamless countertop appearance. The 9-1/2-inch bowl depth accommodates deep pots, sheet pans, and colanders without overflow risk. The rear-positioned 3-1/2-inch drain opening is sized to accept standard garbage disposal flanges and basket strainers. Minimum cabinet width required is 30 inches. The quartz composite material also naturally dampens sound and vibration during use, reducing noise compared to standard stainless steel sinks.

Installation Notes

Undermount sink installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified tradesperson. Power off any garbage disposal and shut off water supply lines before beginning removal of an existing sink or connection of supply and drain lines. Countertop cutout dimensions and mounting hardware requirements vary by countertop material - confirm substrate compatibility and use appropriate adhesive or clip systems rated for the countertop weight load. Follow local plumbing code requirements for drain and trap configuration.
