It’s no secret that clients will spend countless hours at their sinks. From food prep to hand washing to clean up, the kitchen sink is a hub within the home – and a busy one at that. But busy doesn’t have to mean noisy. Educate your clients on this sometimes-overlooked quality by learning key traits of a quiet performance sink.
When it comes to selecting a sink, material matters. Quartz Luxe® and fireclay are naturally less noisy compared to stainless steel sinks. Thicker gauge stainless steel sinks offer a quieter time at the sink. To combat sound, many stainless steel sinks have sound-deadening pads and/or coatings underneath. These features help muffle the sound of running water, clanking silverware, and vibrations such as garbage disposal use. |
