INSTALLER / OWNER BEARS ALL RESPONSIBILTY TO COMPLY WITH ALL STATE AND LOCAL
BUILDING CODES WHEN INSTALLING THIS UNIT
PRE-INSTALLATION PROCEDURES:
All walk-in bathtubs are thoroughly inspected, water tested and operated in our factory prior to shipping. Transit
and rough handling of the tubs may cause damage or the tub to leak. By testing the walk-in tub, problems (if any)
can be quickly identified and resolved prior to installation.
1. Immediately unpack and inspect the unit thoroughly for freight damage, even if there is no visible dam
age
to the carton. If necessary, contact your dealer/distributor immediately to file a freight claim.
2. Place the tub on a relatively flat surface in an area where it may be drained after testing.
3. Never lift the tub by any portion of the hydro massage system.
4. Adjust the drain stopper so it seats completely when down and raises AT LEAST ½ inch when up.
Tighten the stopper stem adjustment nut so that it WILL NOT loosen at any time.
5. Fill the tub with water to the overflow and allow it to stand for a few minutes.
6. If you have the air or whirlpool jets installed, plug in the pump cords and run the system for 10 minutes.
Inspect the tub for leaks.
7. Turn system off then let stand for 10 minutes. Inspect tub completely (around pump, all plumbing fittings
and door for leaks).
8. Any defect must be reported to your dealer/distributor prior to installation in order to have it covered under
warranty.
9. Drain the tub. Ensure the stopper raises properly and the tub drains rapidly. This is an important
step to assure that the drain assembly operates correctly under pressure from a completely full
tub.
10. Check to ensure that your installation will conform to all applicable codes and secure necessary permits.
All electrical and plumbing connections should be made by a qualified electricians and plumbers.
IMPORTANT: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE PRE-INSTALLATION PROCEDURES, THE
