Prepare the installation conditions
The design and location of inlet and outlet holes are the key points of
installation engineering.
The independent bathtub inlet faucet can be divided into floor mounted bathtub
faucets and wall outlet faucets, which can be selected according to the
condition of your own bathroom.
As for the drainage method, it is similar to a washing machine, which uses
hoses to discharge sewage, so it has a certain degree of design flexibility.
However, it should be noted that the drainage holes on the ground should not
be too close to the wall,lt is best to be about 35 centimeters away from the
wall, and at least 20 centimeters or be covered by a bathtub to be more
safe.
Prepare tools For Installation (Not Included) Preparing for Installation
-
Clean the floor and make sure that it is level.
-
Place the freestanding bathtub in the exact position desired. Once set, trace the outline of the bathtub with a pencil or any erasable marking pen. (Figure 1)
-
Determine the ocation of the drain pipe, on the floor by taking measurements of the drain location underneath the unit. Cut a hole into the subfloor large enough to accomodate the plumbing trap. Ensure the space is free of pipes, floor joists, heating ducts and electrical wires.(Figure 2)
The use of a SMARTPAN is highly recommedned for easy install. -
Using a blanket, cardboard, or other clean protective surface, turn the unit on its side so that the unit is properly supported during drain installation.
Setting and Installing the bathtub
-
Apply a generous bead of adhesive or silicone to the bottom of the tub supports. Note the bottom supports will vary by tub model. (Figure 3)
-
Then apply a bead of tub and tile caulk around the edge of the base. (Figure 3)
-
Carefully set tub into position (Figure 4) and connect the drain hardware (prein- stalled on the tub). Finish the installation of the plumbing.
-
Fill the tub with water to the overflow and then drain the tub while inspecting the waste connections below the floor for leaks. Access from below is recommended for this step
-
With the bathtub now in place, wipe off any excess tub and tile caulk and adhesive where the tub meets the floor.
-
Run a bead of silicone caulk around the bottom edge of the bathtub where it meets the floor. Wipe off any excess caulk with a wet cloth (Figure 5)
How To Maintain Your Bathtub The Right Way
It’s easy to maintain your bathtub but since bathtubs are unlike hot tubs in
that they’re located indoors and don’t need chemical purification systems, it
can be easy to forget that bathtubs need some occasional TLC, too. Here, we’ll
show you how to properly maintain your bath- tub so you can enjoy countless
relaxing soaks for years to come.
To take care of your bathtub, make sure to:
- Give it a quick rinse after each use.
- Spray it down with a gentle cleanser each week.
- Flush out and clean its jets every month or so.
- Scrub the entire tub each month.
HM Remove stains as necessary.
@ Let’s take a closer look at each of these steps so you can learn how to keep
your bathtub squeaky clean and smelling fresh.
Rinse After Each Use
Although it may seem like you’re cleaning your bathtub every time you use it,
any soap, oils or bubble bath can contribute to the nasty build-up of scum and
slime in the long run.
To avoid this, simply take a minute after each use to rinse your bathtub with
plain old water. It only takes seconds to do, but it can save you a lot of
cleaning time in the future.
If your bathtub is located underneath a shower, simply run the shower for a
few seconds. Or, if your bathtub is sepa- sate from your shower, run the
faucet and splash the water around with your hands, or use a spray bottle
filled with tap water.
No matter which rinsing method you choose, be sure to et water on all of the
bathtub’s exposed surfaces and that will help maintain your bathtub for a long
time.
Spray With a Gentle Cleanser Weekly
Another equally easy measure you can take to avoid more cleaning, in the ong
run, is giving your bathtub a spray of gentle cleanser on a weekly basis.
Many major cleaning brands sell spray-on bathtub cleansers designed for
frequent use, and most grocery stores offer a generic version at a lower
price.
However, you can make your own, more natural cleanser by simply filling a
spray bottle with a mixture of water and white vinegar. Once you’ve sprayed
down your tub, you can either rinse off the vinegar right away or let it sit
for a few minutes for a more thorough cleanse.
If you see any signs of soap scum, mildew or other unwanted buildups, simply
use a scrubbing brush to target problem areas before you rinse the cleanser
away – a long-handled scrubbing brush can make this step even more effortless.
Flush out the Jets on a Monthly Basis
If you have a whirlpool tub or air bath, it’s important that you regularly
flush out and clean its jets to maintain your bathtub.
With an air bath, this process is easy: Just turn on the jets when the bath is
empty, or use your bath’s built-in drying cycle. Either way, doing so will dry
and flush out your tub’s jets in a matter of minutes.
With a whirlpool tub, cleaning is a bit more involved:
- First, you’ll need to fill the tub until the water is a few inches above the jets.
- At this point, you may add a couple of cups of vinegar to the water, or a cleaning product like bleach or dish- washing detergent (refer to the manufacturer’s instruc- tions to ensure this won‘t damage your tub).
- Then, turn off the air induction valves and turn on the jets. After about 15 minutes, drain the tub and repeat. Although flushing a whirlpool tub’s jets is undeniably a chore, it’s worth it to prevent chunks of debris and mold from ruining an otherwise relaxing bath.
Remember, if you use your jetted tub frequently (i.e., sev- eral times per
week), you’ll have to flush out its jets more frequently, too.
Scrub the Entire Tub Each Month
About every month (or every couple of weeks if you’re a frequent bather),
you’ll need to use some good old-fash- ioned elbow grease to give your bathtub
a thorough scrub.
You can purchase a commercial bathtub scrubbing solution, or you can make your
own.
Simply mix about a cup of baking soda with two three tablespoons each of
liquid Castile soap and hydrogen peroxide. For extra scrubbing power, add a
half cup of salt or cornstarch.
Then, use a washcloth or scrubbing brush to work your chosen scrubbing
solution into all your bathtub’s surfaces, paying extra attention to its
grout, drain, faucet and jet covers.
You’ll be left with a sparkling tub that’s completely free from any mold,
mildew, scum or mineral buildup.
Remove Stains as Necessary to Keep Your Tub Clean
Even with regular cleaning and maintenance, your bathtub may start to develop
some unsightly stains and discol- oration over time.
To fight stains the natural way, simply spray down the stain with a water-
vinegar mixture (or undiluted vinegar if the stain is particularly severe),
then sprinkle baking soda on top.
Once the area has foamed for a few minutes, use a wash- cloth or scrubbing
brush to work the mixture into a paste.
Allow the paste to sit for about 15 minutes, wash it away with water and
repeat as necessary.
Alternatively, you can purchase a commercial stain remover. To use it, just
follow the instructions on the packaging.
While almost everyone dislikes cleaning their bathtub, performing proper
maintenance can reduce overall cleaning time in the long-run and help your
bathtub stay spotless and beautiful for many years to come.
