TheDrainSaddleisusedtoconnecttheDrainLinetothedrain
pipeunderthesink,toallowthesy󰏭emtoushcontaminants
down the drain.
TheDrainSaddleisdesignedtotarounda󰏭andard1½”OD
(outer diameter) drain pipe. The Drain Saddle should always be
in󰏭alledabove(before)theP-Trapandona󰏭raightverticalor
horizontal section of pipe.
Toavoidcloggingthedrainlinewithdebrisdonotin󰏭allthe
Drain Saddle after the drain pipe meets a garbage disposal or
dishwasher drain. Refer to the image below to see ideal Drain
Saddle locations.
Please contact us if you need help locating a drain saddle
placement.
1. Once you have found where your Drain Saddle will go
on the Drain Pipe make a mark for the opening there with a
marker or pencil.
2. Use your drill and an appropriate ¼” (6.35mm) drill bit to
drill a hole at your mark. Be careful to drill through one side
ofthepipeand󰏭abilizeyourpipeswhiledrillingtoavoid
damaging them.
3. Find the half of the Drain Clamp with a hole in its center.
Then remove the backing from the Foam Gasket (the foam
circle at the center of the Gasket is disposable). Make sure to
align the Foam Gasket hole with the Drain Clamp hole and
󰏭icktheadhesivesideoftheGaskettotheinnerwallofthe
Drain Clamp half.
4. Take the half of the Drain Clamp without the Foam Gasket
and insert a nut into the recess on each side.
5. Position both halves of the Drain Clamp on the drain pipe
with the clamp’s opening aligned over the drilled hole. The
Foam Gasket will be between the drain clamp and the drilled
hole. Push your ¼” drill bit through both holes (the Drain
Clamp hole and the hole in the Drain Pipe) and remove to
verify that the clamp is properly aligned with the hole you
drilled.
6. Secure the Drain Clamp halves together in place on the
Drain Pipe. Screw the bolts through the Drain Clamp half with
theFoamGasketandintothehalfyouin󰏭alledthenutsinto
(Do not over tighten. Make sure there is equal space on both
sides between the Drain Clamp halves).
