    Kitchen sink depth
    I need to pick out a kitchen sink for my 36 inch cabinet, having 3cm quartz with undermount sink, my house is 50 years old, pipes all good, the horizontal pipe from the wall is 19 1/2 inches on center from the floor, I may or may not have a garbage disposal, will have a dishwasher, currently have a top mount 50/50 double stainless steel with no dishwasher or disposal, the sinks are 9 1/2 inches from top to start of drain holes inside each sink. I would appreciate some advice regarding what would be the maximum sink depths Ishould consider with or without a disposal. Thank-you for any help you can provide.

    Unless you can get water to run up hill you are in for difficulties. Adding a disposal to an under mount sinl will likely cause the disposal drain to be below the height of the horizontal drain pipe. Either buy a sink with a shallow side, forget the disposal or hire a plumber who can move or alter the drain.

    Having a disposal was at the bottom of the renovation list and I can certianing do without it, However, with the measurements, would it be possible to have slightly deeper sinks? Thank-you
