Do not use your Walk In Tub until a repairman has addressed the fault.

Final Inspections After both the electrical and plumbing installation are done, a final inspection of these parts needs to be completed before finishing the installation.

Finishing Installation An extension Panel is used to extend the length of your Ella Walk In Tub to a 60" length. Some installations require trimming the extension Panel. Cutting the extension pieces should be done with a reciprocation saw; a progressive blade is best or a bi-metal blade will work as well. Measure the distance between the wall and the Walk In Tub by the three corners and at the middle of each length so as to detect any variance in the shape of the wall.
