If the kitchen design tends to be modern and simple, and emphasizes the overall smoothness, installation below may be a better choice. If the kitchen decoration tends to be traditional, or if you like to highlight the design of the sink, installation above is more appropriate.

Stainless steel is one of the most common and popular kitchen sink materials, especially in modern home and commercial kitchens. High-quality stainless steel sinks usually use 304 or 316 grades of stainless steel, which contain a higher proportion of chromium and nickel and have strong corrosion resistance.

If consumers want to replace an above-counter sink with an under-counter sink, they first need to consider the material and load-bearing capacity of the countertop. Under-counter sinks are usually suitable for thicker stone countertops or artificial stone countertops, while thin countertop materials (such as wood or thin stainless steel countertops) may not be suitable for installing under-counter sinks.

Stainless steel is currently one of the most common materials for kitchen faucets. It has strong corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance and stain resistance, so it is particularly suitable for use in high humidity and high temperature environments such as kitchens.

The pipe between the drain in the sink and the sewer needs to maintain a certain air pressure balance. If the drainage pipe is completely sealed and there is no vent, the water will flow through the pipe, which will cause negative pressure inside the pipe, which will affect the drainage speed and may even cause the water in the sink to be unable to be discharged smoothly.

Although the surface of quartz sinks appears smooth and dense after treatment, there may still be fine pores and textures under the microscope. If the sink is exposed to substances with high pigment concentrations for a long time, such as red wine, coffee, soy sauce, etc., the pigment particles of these substances may be deposited in these tiny pores, forming stains.

The space under the sink usually hides facilities such as water pipes, drainage pipes, and garbage disposals. These devices may cause moisture accumulation and lead to a series of problems. Installing vents can help keep the area dry and reduce moisture accumulation.

if you cook frequently or have a lot of cooking and cleaning needs, you may need a stretch faucet or a high-flow faucet to provide a stronger water flow and more operating space. If there are multiple users in the kitchen or there are multiple sinks, you may need to choose a double-hole or multi-hole sink and faucet combination to meet the needs of family members or kitchen staff.

Single sinks are usually more economical and suitable for families with tight budgets. Double sinks are more expensive. If your budget allows, you can choose a double sink with more functions. When considering the budget, you also need to weigh the quality of the sink and the maintenance cost in long-term use.

When pouring boiling water into the sink, avoid pouring a large amount of boiling water at one time, especially when the temperature difference is large. The boiling water can be properly cooled to about 80℃ before pouring it into the sink to reduce the damage caused by temperature changes.
