General Installation Information
Bath may only be installed in a recess type installation.
General Installation Information
Carefully uncrate and inspect your new bath for any shipping damage.
If such damage is found, report it to your vendor immediately. After
inspection and during installation, protect the bath from construction
damage. Before installation, and before enclosing with wallboard,
tile, etc., water test the unit and check for leaks. Do not make
modifications to the whirlpool system or remove pump from factory
mounting. This could adversely affect the safety and performance of
the whirlpool and void the warranty. Do not handle or move the
whirlpool by the pump, motor, or piping system. Fittings (bath filler,
shower arm, etc.) are not provided with the bath and must be ordered
separately. Framing and enclosing materials are provided by others.
IMPORTANT: Water test unit before installation and
enclosure!
Locate studs as required. insure rough dimensions are proper, plumb and square. For whirlpools, access to pump/motor may be made
through access opening in apron panel. The following procedure must be used for all installations: leveling support stringer should be as
indicated. this bath is not self-supporting and must be supported along it's entire bottom. Support with mortar or grout. Position
bathtub/whirlpool within the recess, check level, front to back, side to side, and shim as necessary. To secure the tub to wood studs use
drywall screws w/washers or roofing nails immediately above the flange of the tub.To secure the tub to steel studs use 4" drywall screws and
flatwashers.
See page 2 for complete installation information.
Caution: Take extra care when driving nails or screws to avoid damaging the tub. The tile or similar finished floor will be butted against
the bottom of the tub apron, also holding the tub in place.

INSTALLATION AND FRAMING INSTRUCTIONS
Locate studs as required. Ensure roughing-in dimensions are proper, plumb and square. Access to Pump/Motor may be
made through the access opening in the apron panel. It is strongly recommended that an additional opening be provided for
access to the drain components.
NOTE: The apron may be used as the primary access opening.
1. As shown in Fig. 1, mark the position of the underside of the deck by tracing a line onto the studs, using a level or other
suitable straight edge.
2. With the top of the stringer touching the traced line, attach the stringer to the studs.
3. Install drain components to the whirlpool or bath following the manufacturers instructions. See the roughing-in drawing for
suggested opening size and location dimensions.
4. THIS BATH MUST BE SUPPORTED ALONG ITS ENTIRE BOTTOM. We recommend the use of mortar as bedding
material (sand is not recommended). Apply enough bedding to support the complete bottom of the bath. After the bedding
has been poured, and before it sets, position whirlpool or bath within recess until the rim is leveled against the leveling
stringers (see "Typical Recess Installation") shown below. The rim of the bath MUST NOT support weight. Allow the
bedding material to completey harden before applying weight to the rim or bottom of the bath. Any finish material such as
tile or wall board must be self-supporting if it contacts the deck of the bath.
