What's the difference between an undermount and topmount (or ‘self-rimming') sink?

FRANKE USA: Frequently Asked Questions
A topmount sink has a lip that folds over the countertop and is therefore resting on top of the countertop cutout. Fasteners securely mount an undermount sink underneath the countertop so that a polished edge of granite, marble, etc. is exposed above the sink. An undermount sink cutout requires more polishing and installation labor than a topmount sink cutout and is therefore a more expensive option.

Yes, providing you leave the appropriate access for our service technicians (speak to your HotSpring sales person for more guidance according to which product you purchase). The short answer is no.
