The ALFI AB538 Farmhouse Kitchen Sink offers a durable fireclay construction, versatile installation options, and a classic farmhouse aesthetic for the discerning homeowner.
Unmatched Durability and Timeless Elegance
Crafted for a lifetime of use, the ALFI AB538 Farmhouse Kitchen Sink is constructed from solid, high-grade fireclay using a high-pressure casting process. This meticulous manufacturing technique results in a sink that is exceptionally resilient to daily wear and tear, including resistance to acids, alkalis, scratches, and chipping. Its classic farmhouse apron-front design brings a touch of timeless elegance to any kitchen, making it a beautiful and practical centerpiece for your culinary space.
Superior Fireclay Construction
The heart of this sink's durability lies in its premium fireclay material, boasting a substantial 3/4" wall thickness. This robust build ensures structural integrity and a solid, premium feel that is resistant to impact and harsh kitchen chemicals. Each sink is a unique piece of art, as the organic nature of fireclay means dimensions may vary by up to 1/8" and minor, natural imperfections may be present, adding to its handcrafted character without compromising its flawless functionality.
Versatile Installation Methods
Designed for maximum flexibility, this kitchen sink supports three distinct installation styles to suit your countertop and cabinet design. You can choose an under-mount installation for a seamless look with the countertop overlapping the sink's edge, a top-mount setup where the countertop sits beneath the sink's lip, or a modern flush-mount installation where the countertop is even with the sink edge. This adaptability makes it an ideal choice for both new construction and kitchen remodeling projects.
Generous and Functional Bowl Design
The single basin measures a spacious 15 1/8" x 18 1/8" x 9 1/8", providing ample room for washing large pots, baking sheets, and other oversized cookware with ease. The basin features a practical 3 1/2" rear center drain placement for efficient water flow. The sink's overall dimensions are a bottom width of 32 1/2" and a top width of 32 3/4", with a subtle 1/8" taper from top to bottom that contributes to its sturdy construction and classic profile.
Remarkable Heat and Impact Resistance
Your kitchen demands a sink that can handle extreme conditions, and the ALFI AB538 delivers. It is rigorously tested to be heat resistant up to 350°F, meaning you can safely place hot pots and pans directly into the basin without fear of cracking or thermal shock. This exceptional heat tolerance, combined with its inherent resistance to chipping, ensures your sink maintains its beautiful appearance even under the most demanding use.
Rigorous Quality and Certification
Every ALFI farmhouse sink undergoes strict quality control inspections to guarantee it meets the highest standards before leaving the factory. It is officially certified by the Uniform Plumbing Code (cUPC), assuring you of its compliance with industry standards for safety and performance. This certification, paired with its robust construction, provides homeowners with complete confidence in the product's quality and long-term reliability for their kitchen.
