CHECK ENTIRE UNIT FOR CONCEALED DAMAGE. If there is any damage, DO NOT INSTALL!

PLANNING THE INSTALLATION

1.  

Make certain the floor structure is level and adequate to support installation. See floor loading in   

 

tub specifications.

2.  

Building codes require that a panel(s) be constructed to allow ample clearance for plumbing repairs  

 

 

and pump service or removal. (Please refer to your local codes for regulations.)

3.  

Using the tub itself, or installation drawings, measure and mark locations for waste pipe, water 

 

supply, wiring runs, and service access.
