The Waste King Quick & Hot instant hot water dispenser system requires precise countertop hole placement for professional installation. This fabrication-grade DXF template provides exact specifications for drilling the required 1.375-inch diameter mounting hole in granite, quartz, marble, and other solid surface materials. Trusted by countertop fabricators and kitchen installers, this template ensures accurate hole positioning and proper clearance for Waste King dispenser systems, eliminating costly measurement errors and callbacks.
Installation Overview
Waste King instant hot water dispensers utilize a standard 1.375-inch diameter mounting hole that penetrates through the countertop or sink deck. The template specifies a 4-inch clearance zone to accommodate the dispenser body and allow proper spacing for the underlying tank connections. Installation can be performed in the countertop deck adjacent to the main sink or in an existing sink hole position. For natural stone countertops, employ diamond core drilling technology with continuous water cooling to achieve clean, chip-free holes. The dispenser tank mounts in the cabinet below and requires adequate vertical clearance (typically 14-18 inches depending on model) and access to both water supply and electrical connections. Waste King dispensers are designed for use with standard household water pressure.
CNC Cutting Notes
Import the DXF file into your CNC control software and verify all coordinates before initiating the cutting program. The 1.375-inch hole diameter must maintain tight tolerances (±0.010 inch) to ensure proper mounting hardware fit. For CNC router operations on natural stone, use a 35mm or 1-3/8 inch diamond-coated core bit running at 2000-3000 RPM with constant water application. Feed rates should be reduced to 15-25 IPM for harder materials like granite and quartzite. When using CNC waterjet systems, set abrasive flow rates for smooth edge finish and reduce traverse speed around the circular path to minimize taper. The clearance circle indicated on the template must remain free of structural elements such as sink support brackets or cabinet bracing that could interfere with tank installation.
Material Compatibility
This Waste King dispenser template is compatible with all common countertop fabrication materials including natural granite, engineered quartz (Cambria, Caesarstone, Silestone, Viatera), marble, quartzite, soapstone, concrete, and solid surface products (Corian, Staron). The template works with both undermount and drop-in sink configurations. For laminate countertops, ensure the substrate is solid at the hole location and seal all exposed edges after drilling to prevent delamination. Ultra-compact surfaces like Dekton and Neolith require specialized diamond tooling but accept the standard 1.375-inch hole specification. When fabricating butcher block or wood countertops, apply food-safe waterproof sealant around the hole perimeter to protect against moisture damage from dispenser use.
Where to Buy
Waste King instant hot water dispensers are available through authorized plumbing distributors, kitchen and bath showrooms, and online retailers specializing in kitchen fixtures. The Quick & Hot series represents Waste King's primary instant hot water product line. Purchase your specific dispenser model before countertop fabrication to confirm dimensional requirements. Waste King is a subsidiary of Moen Incorporated, and products may be found through Moen dealer networks. Installation kits typically include the tank unit, faucet assembly, and mounting hardware. Verify that your chosen model includes all necessary components for installation, as some retailers sell tank and faucet separately.
