6.6 Mop Sinks

Because of back problems the old style janitor sinks are not used as much. The mop sink [see below]  allows the custodian to fill and empty buckets without having to lift them.

Constructed of moulded stone, floor-mount corner design maximizes space. The installation requires a wall-mount faucet. The 3” P trap is located below the floor similar to a shower.
