Installation Guide

5. Complete the Installation
Install the Trim Kit
Install the suction cover and jets according to the instructions packed with the trim kit.
Test Run the Bath
Fill the bath at least 2 (51 mm) above the top of the highest whirlpool jet.
Turn off the bath and let sit for five minutes. Check all bath piping connections for leaks. Check for
leakage along the front, sides, and back of the bath.
Turn on the blower and run for 5 minutes. Check for proper operation and function.
For additional information on bath operation, see the Operating the Whirlpool System and
Operating the Air System sections.
Finish the Installation
Install water-resistant wallboard and all finished wall, deck, and floor materials. Ensure a 1/16 (2
mm) gap between the bath rim and the finished material.
Apply silicone sealant to seal all areas where the bath and finished wall or deck meet.
Install the faucet trim.
Clean-up After Installation
When cleaning up after installation, do not use abrasive cleansers, as they may scratch and dull the
bath surface. Use warm water and a liquid detergent to clean the surface of the bath.
Remove stubborn stains or paint with turpentine or paint thinner. Do not allow cleaners containing
petroleum distillates to remain in contact with any bath surface for long periods of time. Remove
plaster by carefully scraping with a wood edge. Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, or other
metal tools. Use a powder-type detergent on a damp cloth to provide mild abrasive action to any
residual plaster.
