Door and Frame Adjustments Prepare the sub-floor for the drain and ensure that the area is level. The supporting sub-floor must be able to support the total weight of the bathtub, bather and water and must meet local construction code requirements. Use a level and make sure that the sub-floor below the tub is leveled. If the floor is not perfectly level, adjust the appropriate leveling legs to re-align the tub to perfect level.
Door and Frame Adjustments Your walk in bathtub has been tested and leveled properly before leaving our facility. Our walk in bathtubs have been set on a perfectly level surface to ensure no leaks and proper door closing. It is up to your installer to test and make any adjustments necessary to ensure that all leveling legs support the tub frame and that the door is aligned correctly to prevent any leaks. The door must close smoothly to create a water tight seal.
Door and Frame Adjustments WARNING: Failure to level the tub correctly WILL RESULT IN MISALIGNMENT! The drawings below illustrate some examples of what types of frame warping will occur if the legs are not level with the floor. www.ellasbubbles.
Door Handle Instructions Door Stopper The door handle must be placed correctly so the handle stopper stops the door handle and protects the door mechanism from breaking. There must not be a gap between the door and door handle if it is installed correctly. Make sure to tighten the screw with a wrench. The screw holds the door handle at approximately torque of 10 pounds. Screw on the cover and tighten it by hand (do not use a wrench). www.ellasbubbles.
