Installation Instructions

Installation Notes

Professional installation by a licensed plumber required. Adhere to all local building and plumbing codes.
Measure the actual tub prior to any construction or installation to ensure accuracy for rough-in.
Be sure that the floor is structurally sound and able to support the full weight of a tub with water and an occupant.
Sub floor must be correctly leveled.
Support the bottom of the tub only by the feet or base of the tub.
Do not use the rim as a supporting area.
Ensure that the tub is perfectly levelled for proper draining.
The base area should be set in 1” to 2” of mortar cement.
Access should be given to all plumbing connections.
Verify that the bottom of the apron is at the same height as the floor covering.
100%Silicone sealant is recommended.

Prior to commencing installation

Remove packaging carefully without damaging and store until installation is completed.
Inspect all areas of the tub prior to installation– the two year limited warranty does not cover any visible defects if the tub has been installed.
Contact your retailer within one calendar week after receipt if any defect is found.

Post-Installation
To clean without scratching use a moist soft cloth and a mild liquid detergent.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, scraping tools, or any item that could damage or dull the acrylic surface.
