3. Guida all'installazione
Proper planning is crucial for a successful installation of your BLANCO IKON sink. This section outlines important considerations for both countertop fabrication and cabinet construction.
3.1 Countertop Fabrication
Countertop templates are not included with the sink due to the high level of customization required. Your countertop fabricator must use the actual sink for templating prior to fabrication.
- Installazione sottopiano: For a streamlined look, ensure the top of the sink aligns with the top of the cabinet. Choose a thin countertop profile.
- Flushmount or Slightly Elevated Installation: The countertop will meet the outside of the sink, and the sink will be raised slightly above the countertop. The gap between the countertop and sink will need to be sealed.
- Sink Reveal: An 1/8-inch reveal is recommended for all BLANCO sinks to provide enough space around the sink opening for accessories.

3.2 Cabinet Construction
A custom sink base and reinforcement system are required to support the weight of the IKON sink (up to 400 lbs). The cabinet area beneath the sink must be reinforced.
- Ensure proper clearance for the faucet, water supply lines, drain assembly, and garbage disposal system while maintaining the structural integrity of the cabinet.
- The cabinet panels on each side of the IKON will need to be custom cut to fit the 2-degree vertical apron angle. A cabinet fabrication template is included with the sink and can also be downloaded from the BLANCO websito.

5. Manutenzione e cura
The SILGRANIT material is highly durable and low maintenance, but proper care will ensure its longevity and appearance.
- Pulizia giornaliera: Clean with a soft cloth and mild soap or a non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse thoroughly with water after cleaning.
- Rimozione delle macchie: For stubborn stains, use a mixture of baking soda and water, or a specialized BLANCOCLEAN SILGRANIT cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or steel wool.
- Resistenza al calore: While SILGRANIT is heat resistant, avoid placing extremely hot items (e.g., pots directly from the stove) directly on the sink surface for prolonged periods. Use a trivet or sink grid.
- Resistenza ai graffi: The material is highly scratch-resistant, but using cutting boards is recommended to protect the surface and your knives.
- Istruzioni per la cura del prodotto: Hand Wash (as per manufacturer specifications).

6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
Problemi comuni e soluzioni:
- Drenaggio lento: Check for food debris or obstructions in the drain assembly. If using a basket strainer, ensure it is clear. For persistent issues, consult a plumber.
- Macchie d'acqua: Wipe the sink dry after each use to prevent mineral deposits, especially in hard water areas. Regular cleaning with a mild descaling agent can help.
- Fading Appearance: Ensure proper cleaning as per maintenance instructions. Avoid prolonged exposure to strong chemicals or highly acidic substances. If the sink appears dull, a specialized SILGRANIT cleaner can restore its luster.
