Elkay Residential LRAD1522652 Drop-in Sink 15x22 Ada

Product Description

The ELKAY RESIDENTIAL LRAD1522652 is a drop-in, single-bowl kitchen sink constructed from 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel with a lustrous scratch-resistant finish. The bowl measures 11.5 inches in length by 16 inches in width, providing workable space for washing, soaking, and stacking. A rear-centered drain opening measures 3.5 inches and promotes efficient cabinet clearance below. Sound Guard bottom pads are bonded to the underside to dampen vibration and reduce noise during use. This sink is ADA compliant when correctly installed and is manufactured in the USA. Licensed plumbers and experienced remodelers handle typical installation.

The LRAD1522652 is suited for residential kitchen, prep area, and laundry room applications. Its drop-in configuration fits into a cut countertop opening and is secured via a U-channel mounting system with interior clip placement. The 15-inch by 22-inch overall footprint targets smaller or space-constrained installations where ADA accessibility is a requirement. The rear-centered drain positioning maximizes usable bowl depth and leaves more cabinet space below for plumbing rough-in.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and local amendments. Shut off the water supply and disconnect existing drain and supply lines before removing any existing sink. Apply a continuous bead of plumber's putty or silicone sealant around the countertop cutout perimeter before setting the sink to prevent leaks. Tighten mounting clips evenly inside the U-channel to secure the rim without distorting the countertop surface, then reconnect drain and supply lines and test for leaks before returning the fixture to service.
