Installation Instructions

BEFORE BEGINNING

- Carefully read the instructions before beginning installation.

- Observe all local building and plumbing codes.

- To protect the unit during installation, we recommend that you lay a piece of cardboard

underneath the bathtub.

- Place the unit in the bathroom before you start working. If the unit is covered with a polyethylene

protective film, do not remove it until the installation is complete for maximum protection.

However, remove film where two surfaces will be in permanent contact.

- It is strongly recommended that this installation be performed by a professional plumber

or contractor.

- A minimum of two people are needed to perform this installation.

- Provide a minimum of 1800 lb (816.5kg) floor support under the bathtub.

- This bathtub is designed for a freestanding installation only.

RECOMMENDED TOOLS AND MATERIALS

Inspection:

- Remove the tub from the carton. Retain the shipping carton until product is satisfactory. Do not

lift the tub by the plumbing at any time, handle by the shell only. All tub units are factory tested

for proper operation and watertight connections prior to shipping.

- Inspect the shell and tub components. Should inspection reveal any damage or defect in the

finish, or visible damage to any components, do not install the tub. Damage or defects in the

finish that are claimed after the tub has been installed are excluded from the warranty.

- Inspect the tub for loose fittings.

Testing:

- Prior to installation, and before enclosing with wallboard, tile, etc, the bath must be filled with

water and operated to check for leaks that may have resulted from shipping

or mishandling.

- It is the responsibility of the installer to thoroughly test the tub prior to

completing installation. Place the tub on a level surface, ensure drain

is sealed and fill the bathtub with water to the bottom of the overflow.

Allow water to sit in tub for at least 5 minutes as a static test. If

installing a system tub, plug in the motor/pump and turn it on. Confirm

all features function correctly. Visually inspect all joints for leaks.

DO NOT install tub if any leaks or detected or systems do not work

properly.

DO NOT SIT ON EDGE OF BATHTUB, SINCE DAMAGE OR INJURY MAY OCCUR.
