SERVICE
ACCESS
AND
VENTILATION:
It
is
the
responsibility
of
the
installer
or
owner
to
provide
access
for
service
required,
per
code.
Ella’s
Bubbles
is
not
responsible
for
any
costs
related
to
obtaining
access
for
repair.
The
owner
shall
assume
responsibility
for
such
costs,
and
if
appropriate,
must
seek
recovery
from
the
installer.
DOOR
AND
SEAL:
Please
keep
in
mind
that
the
door
has
been
closed
for
an
extended
period
of
time
throughout
shipping
and
the
tub
has
been
stored
in
various
temperatures.
When
the
tub
is
received,
the
door
seal
must
be
reformed
and
adjusted,
as
it
may
have
possibly
stuck
to
the
frame
throughout
storage
and
shipping
in
various
temperatures.
In
cases
such
as
these,
the
door
seal
must
be
released
and
rested
with
the
door
open.
It
can
be
done
by
squeezing
the
seal
with
your
finger
tips
and
pulling
it
away
from
the
door
frame
to
regain
its
flexibility
and
original
form.
It
is
highly
suggested
that
the
door
be
kept
in
the
open
position
while
the
tub
is
not
in
use
to
increase
the
lifetime
of
the
door
seal
and
maintain
its
flexibility.
TESTING
YOUR
WALK
IN
TUB
All
walk
‐
in
bathtubs
are
factory
tested
for
proper
operation
and
watertight
connections
prior
the
packing
and
shipping.
However,
the
unit
must
be
retested
by
installer
prior
to
installation.
Ella’s
Bubbles
is
not
responsible
for
any
defect
that
could
have
been
discovered,
repaired,
or
avoided
by
following
this
inspection
and
testing
procedure.
1.
Place
the
walk
‐
in
bathtub
on
a
level
surface
near
appropriate
water
and
electrical
supply
and
drainage.
It
can
be
done
in
homeowner’s
driveway
or
in
the
bathroom,
as
well.
2.
If
the
tub
comes
with
a
flex
drain,
connect
it
to
the
existing
home
drain.
If
not,
run
a
temporary
drain.
Fill
up
the
water
2
inches
below
to
overflow
hole.
3.
Do
not
install
the
bathtub
if
leaks
are
detected.
Caution:
If
walk
‐
in
bathtub
is
not
resting
on
all
six
leveling
feet,
water
will
not
drain
properly
and
may
cause
the
door
to
leak.
Never
allow
the
weight
of
the
tub
to
be
supported
by
wood
support
stringers
as
this
will
result
in
product
failure
and
void
the
warranty.
Verify
the
product
is
completely
level
by
checking
the
tub
deck
surface
and
ensure
all
7
leveling
feet
are
touching
the
ground.
Every
tub
is
100%
water
tested
at
the
factory
with
all
pumps
in
working
condition.
However,
transporting
or
carrying
the
tub
may
cause
loose
fittings,
possible
damages,
or
leaks.
It
is
the
contractor’s
responsibility
to
water
test
the
bathtub
with
all
pumps
running
prior
to
finishing
the
tub
and
wall
installation.
The
contractor
must
make
sure
that
all
fittings
by
the
pumps
are
retightened
and
the
tub
is
leak
proof.
Any
water
or
air
jets
can
be
retightened
to
stop
the
leaks.
