ATTENTION
BEFORE STARTING
Our products are carefully inspected and packaged in our warehouse for shipping. Only remove the protective film at the very end of the installation to ensure maximum protection. (Except where bathtub surface will be in permanent contact with another suface (I.E., Wall / faucet, etc)). It is very important that you carefully inspect the product before installation. If a product is defective, please contact the compagny before installation. The installer will be held responsible for any breakge or damages following the use of a defective product. To protect the unit during installation, place a cardboard in the bottom of the bathtub. Verify that the bathroom floor is leveled and strong enough to support a minimum weight of 1500 Ibs, reinforce the existing flooring if needed. It is IMPORTANT to verify the drain location (it can be place of the left, middle of right) before drilling a hole in the floor. It is important to provide an access near the plumbing, pump and/or control boxes allowing to easily disassemble and/or repair these components. The whirpool/Therapeutic systems must be connected before the final installation. (see the installation and user’s guide for whirpool/therapeutic system).

ACCESSORIES
INSTALLATION
After taking the bathtub out of the box, take the plastic pipe out.
Install the bathtub at the chosen place. Turn it upside down. Adjust the feet so it is leveled and make sure they stand out form the frame at 1/8 to 1/4″ (3 to 6 mm) to avoid putting weight on the skirt of the tub. Once you have put the tub back on its feet, make sure they all rest on the floor and that everything is leveled.
Place the bathtub at
the exact location where it will sit and align the drainage pipes (from the
tub and on the floor). Mark the floor around the outside of the skirt. Apply a
bead of silicone or adhesive on the mark you made on the floor. Don’t forget
to take into account the space left from the feet. Put the tub back in its
place and allow the silicone to harden for 24 hours before completing the
installation.
- Connect the draining pipes so that the water drains properly.
- Once the installation is finished, make sure all connections are watertight.
- Protect the surface of the bathtub while proceeding to the installation to avoid damages
- Finish with a bead of silicone to provide rigidity to the skirt and to close the gap between the bathtub skirt and the floor.
MAINTENANCE
- Use only soft soap to clean the surface. Never use an abrasive product, an acid or alkaline detergent or any solvent or sharp objects to clean the bathtub surface.
- Polish the surface to make it shiny.
- Clean the chrome with a soft soap.
- After having used the bathtub, dry it with a soft cloth to avoid water stains.
NOTES
- Push on the drainer cap to close it and push it again to open it and drain the tub.
- If the drain gets clogged, simply unscrew the cap to clean it.

This warranty is applicable on all BATO products purchased on or after
December 15, 2021. The warranty doesn’t apply if the product is damaged as a

person who did those damages. The warranty does not cover shipping and labour
costs. The warranty does not apply to the normal tear and wear of the goods.

result directly or indirectly from a product defect, except where the
applicable legislation does not allow any exclusion or limitation following

after. However, a leak caused by an improper installation could happen a long

professional.
