!WARNINGS!

Alumax Bath Enclosures by Sapa are intended to be installed by experienced installers. If you need assistance with installation, or locating an experienced installer, contact Alumax Consumer Service at 800 643 1514. Ensure that the bath enclosure is installed appropriately. Improper installation can lead to breakage, damage or improper performance of the bath enclosure.

Wear safety glasses when drilling or cutting to avoid injury to the eyes.

When drilling holes in ceramic tile or marble, use a center punch and hammer to carefully break the surface glaze so the drill can start without skidding. A skidding drill can cause damage to the surface and can be dangerous (risk of personal injury).

Use caution and proper technique whenever using tools to avoid damage to property and/or personal injury.

Shower doors are not water tight. They are designed to prevent leaks under normal shower conditions. Excessive water pressure or directing the shower directly at the door can result in leaks.

Do not hang on towel bars or handles or use them to support your weight getting in and out of the bathtub or shower. Towel bars and handles are not intended to be used as grab bars for assistance getting in and out of the shower or bathtub. They are not intended to support a person’s weight and could break.

Do not use excessive force when opening and closing shower doors. Excessive force could lead to glass breakage or other damage to the enclosure.

!GLASS WARNINGS!

TEMPERED GLASS CANNOT BE CUT. Attempting to cut tempered glass will result in the glass breaking or shattering.

USE CAUTION WHEN HANDLING GLASS PANELS. Safety tempered glass is very resistant to breakage, but it can still break if unequal pressure is placed on it during installation (or if cutting of the glass is attempted). In addition, the sharp corners of the panels can damage tile and floor coverings or cause injury.

BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION

Unpack your unit carefully and inspect for freight damage. Lay out and identify all parts using the instruction sheets as a reference. Before discarding the carton, check for small hardware bags that tend to fall into the bottom of the box. If any parts are damaged or missing, refer to the descriptions noted in the instructions when contacting your dealer for replacements.

To install your Alumax Bath Enclosure by Sapa, you will need the following: tape measure, level, #2 Phillips screwdriver, flat screwdriver, drill, 1/8”, 7/64” and 3/16” drill bits, hacksaw, pencil, and caulking (clear silicone recommended). Optional tools include a miter box for cutting parts to length, files, center punch and masking tape.

NOTE: Before beginning installation, check the tub rim for level and both walls for plumb. If either are off more than ¼” to 3/8”, you may want to contact your dealer for tapered fillers which can be used to level the tub track or plumb the wall jams.

CARE AND CLEANING

The simplest and preferred method of cleaning your unit is by washing it with clean water and drying with a soft cloth.

If soil is still present after drying, a non abrasive cleanser with a pH of seven to eight may be used. Comet Bathroom Cleaner® has been tested and is recommended by the Bath Enclosure Manufacturers Association (BEMA).

DO NOT USE SCOURING PADS, SHARP INSTRUMENTS, BLEACH OR ACID BASED CLEANSERS TO CLEAN THE UNIT AS THEY MAY DAMAGE THE UNIT.
