INSTALLING ONE-PIECE SKIRT
IMPORTANT - Read these instructions prior to roughing
in bath tub. Fasten 3 wooden blocks to the floor (see Fig. 1).
Taking into consideration the shape of the skirt, which should
result in a plumb position to the tub, perpendicular to the floor
(see Fig. 2). If the skirt needs to be trimmed at bottom, or from
the side, you can do so by cutting with a circular saw (carbide
or diamond tipped). Secure in place at the bottom by attaching
screws through the panel in the wood blocks or with sanitary
silicone.
PLUMBING ROUGH-IN
The bath waste opening protrudes below the base approx-
imately one inch. You may be required to cut a hole in the
subfloor to accommodate bath waste. In slab on grade or
prestressed concrete floors where cutting is not desired, the
tub may be raised up by building the platform higher and us-
ing extra mortar under the tub. If a joist must be notched,
verify that structure will not be weakened. Remove only what
is necessary. Provide supply pipe, rough-in waste and vent
per code.
PLUMBING
PVC Schedule 40 piping, self draining pump and fittings come
completely preplumbed unless requested otherwise. The
pump and whirlpool system are completely contained within
the tub perimeter. On some models, the pump may exceed
beyond the perimeter of the tub. If you have such a model,
please make allowances during installation.
INCOMING POWER
ELECTRICAL
Factory wired for 110 Volt 20 Amps. Ground Fault Circuit Inter-
rupter (GFCI) is required. The GFCI breaker must not supply
any other circuits or devices. Note: A 30 Amp circuit must be
installed to use with any permanently connected unit.
FINISHING
Before finishing with your choice of material, make sure
access entries are available to the pump, bath waste, and
plumbing fixtures. Finish as desired and seal around tub, pref-
erably with silicone.
NOTE:
1. For Caulking, we recommend 100% sanitary silicone
rather than latex.
2. For quieter operation, you may choose to insulate the
construction area.
3. IT IS THE INSTALLERS RESPONSIBILITY TO SUPPLY
ACCESS TO PUMP AND EQUIPMENT
REMINDER: During construction, we suggest that you cover
tub to avoid use as trash receptacle
