2.2.2 Sinks. Sinks shall be one piece-molded units. The bottom shall slope toward the drain. Waste fitting openings shall be sized to accommodate standard waste fittings unless the waste outlet fitting is manufacturer- supplied.
2.2.3 Service Basin. Terrazzo service basins shall be one-piece molded units. The floor shall slope towards the drain. A drain fitting for inside caulking to a 3 in. (76 mm) pipe shall be embedded into the fixture.
2.2.4 Wash Fountains and Lavatory Systems. Wash fountain and lavatory system bowls shall be one-piece molded units with the inside bottom of the bowl sloping towards the drain so as to provide Continuous draining during use. All such bowls shall have a waste-fitting opening, the center of which is at the lowest point of the bowl. Waste4itting openings will be sized to accommodate standard waste fittings unless the waste-outlet fitting is manufacturer-supplied. Bowls shall have a minimum capacity of 21/4 gal (8.5 1.) per user. Circular and nonlinear units shall provide 20 in. (508 mm) of rim per user. Linear units shall provide 24 in. (610 mm) center- to-center distance per user section.
3.2 Slip Resistance
3.2.1 Test Method. The surfaces of the bathing area of the shower receptor shall be slip resistant and shall comply with ASTM F 462.
3.2.2 Performance Requirements. The test samples that do not comply with the performance requirements as set forth in the ASTM standard shall be cause for rejection of the product.
3.3 Surface
3.3.1 Test Method. Terrazzo bathtubs, shower receptors, wash fountains, and lavatories/lavatory systems shall meet the requirements of IAPMO/ANSI ZI 24.1.2, IAPMO/ANSI Z124.3, IAPMO/ ANSI ZI 24.6, or SA B45.5 for stain resistance, chemical resistance, wear and cleanahility, and thermal shock resistance.
3.3.2 Performance Requirements. The test samples that do not comply with the performance requirements as set forth in the applicable ANSI or CSA standard shall be cause for rejection of the product.
4 MARKING AND IDENTIFICATION
Each fixture shall be permanently marked with the manufacturer’s name or trademark. Acceptable means of applying permanent marking shall include fired-on, etching, stamping with permanent (nonwater-soluble) ink, and cast-in markings. Such marking shall be located where it can be seen after installation. Adhesive labels that comply with UI 969 shall also be considered permanent when installed on areas of the fixture that are not normally submerged in water. The exposure conditions for labels contained in para. 7.1 of UL 969 shall apply along with the additional exposure to the detergent test specified in Table 7.4 of UL 969.
