FREESTANDING INSTALLATION 

(For exposed drain see Page 6)

PREPARATION

Note: Drain, waste locations, and trim options 

vary by model. 

Clean, level, and prepare the floor for installation.

Place the unit in the exact installed position on the floor 
and trace the outline of the bath with a pencil or any 
erasable marking (Figure 1). Templates for Freestanding 
bathtubs come with the tub.

Determine the location of the drain pipe on the floor 
by taking measurements of the drain and waste location 
underneath the unit (Figure 2).

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.

Clean the drain hole area in preparation of setting the 
drain. The area should be dry and free of any debris.

The Metro Collection Tubs are manufactured from High-Quality HydroLuxe, a blend of both organic minerals  
and the best in engineered composites. This blend combines a cast acrylic polymer for it’s benefits in durability 
and bonding strength, and ATH which is derived from Bauxite Ore. Bauxite is an aluminum ore, found mostly in 
tropical regions, and is the main source of aluminum. ATH is also natural fire-retardant. The nonporous surface  
is able to prevent dirt from gathering and withstands stains better than the other materials. To keep this high 
quality look on your Metro tub, please follow these instructions:

MATTE FINISH
• Remove dust with a soft damp cloth, for example; microfiber or calico cloths.
• Clean surface with water and any mild detergent or dish soap.
• For a more difficult stain such as oil, paint, ink or grease clean with rubbing alcohol and dry with a soft cloth.
• Please do not use any sharp objects because that might result in scratching the surface of the tub.
• Use 180 grit wet/dry sandpaper and clean it with a soft scrub.

GLOSS FINISH
• Clean with mild dish soap and water, any non abrasive product to clean high-gloss counter surfaces will work.
• Remove dust with a soft damp cloth, for example; microfiber or calico cloths.
• Clean oil, paint, ink or grease with rubbing alcohol and dry with a soft cloth.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners, it is not safe to use these on your glossed product.
• Please do not use any sharp objects because that might result in scratching the surface of the tub.

Please do not use anything else other than what was instructed. Improper use can result in damage to the tub or 
its finish and may void the warranty. Keep in mind, if you do end up damaging the tub, scratches can usually be 
removed, buffed or polished out by an Authorized Hydro Systems Service Agent.
