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. After 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. Check for availability of optional American Standard wall tiling bead
(required for recess installations).
Protect all finished surfaces of the whirlpool during construction and installation using a drop cloth.
WARNING! Do not lift whirlpool by the piping harness at any time.

INSTALLATION AND FRAMING INSTRUCTIONS
The variety of installations possible for this whirlpool may require framing procedures other than those shown. Locate studs
as required. Ensure roughing-in dimensions are proper, plumb and square. Provisions must be made in all installations for an
access opening for servicing the pump and controls. It is strongly recommended that an additional opening be provided for
access to the drain components.
NOTE: The apron should not be used as the primary access opening.
1. Position the whirlpool into the installation opening and level the deck, shimming the integral support feet as necessary.
Mark the final position of the underside of the deck by tracing a line on to the studs (see Figure 1).
2. Remove the whirlpool and attach a 2 x 4 stringer to the studs, with the top of the stringer touching the traced line.
3. Install drain components to the whirlpool following the manufacturers instructions. Before replacing your whirlpool for final
installation, be certain that an opening has been provided in the sub-floor for the drain. See the roughing-in drawing for
suggested opening size and location dimensions.
4. Replace whirlpool and re-shim the integral support feet, shimming the entire length of the support feet. Secure the shims
using construction adhesive, silicone, mortar or equivalent materials. While not a necessity, the use of a foundation base
consisting of cement (e.g. Sakrete), mortar, or grout will help provide a solid and secure installation.
