Before taking the bath indoors for installation, thoroughly inspect bath for:
• Shipping Damage: Report shipping damage to the carrier immediately. DO NOT INSTALL A DAMAGED BATH. Signature Bath is not
responsible for damage that occurred during transit.
• Factory Defect: Manufacturing defects must be reported to Signature Bath before installation. Defects or damage claimed after
installation are not covered under the warranty.
• Measurement Variances: Each Signature Bath is hand crafted which may result in slight variations during the manufacturing process.
The manufacturer recommends measuring the bath to determine actual cut-out dimensions. Signature Bath is not responsible for
preparatory materials or labor costs associated with variations in the manufacturing process..
This bath must be tested for operation and leaks prior to placement and enclosure. Failure to do so will void the warranty. Signature Baths
are water tested at the manufacturing facility and found to be fully operational and leak-free prior to shipping. Freight, handling and site
exposure may adversely affect the bath’s condition. It is the responsibility of the installer to inspect the bath shell and components for
defects and to test the bath prior to installation. This bath is intended for indoor use only and is warranted for indoor installation in a
climate controlled environment only.
TESTING YOUR BATH:
1. To protect the bath, lay a clean heavy drop cloth on a at surface where the bath can be drained easily after testing, like a driveway.
2. Remove the packing materials being careful not to scratch or damage the surface. Inspect the bath to make sure the model, color and
features in the bath received match the bath that was ordered exactly.
3. Carefully place the bath on the drop cloth. Do not use the plumbing harness or electrical components to lift the bath.
4. Seal the drain with tape.
5. Hand tighten plumbing unions at the blower.
6. Fill the bath until the water level is above the jets and allow bath to stand for ve minutes without the blower running.
7. Check for leaks by examining the area underneath and surrounding the bath. The controls installed above the normal water line are
water resistant. They are not water proof. Under normal use the controls will not leak. However, the controls are not warranted against
damage caused by improper use or that occurs when they are subjected to conditions for which they are not designed like leaks or
submersion
