Installation

Framing and Support

READ ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY. IMPROPER INSTALLATION WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

The floor structure beneath the bathtub must be able to support the total weight of the bathtub, water and bather. Consult 

a structural engineer.

IMPORTANT!

Make sure that walls and floors meet fire safety requirements of local building code and/or FHA/HUD Minimum Property 

Standards.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

1.  Proper installation is your responsibility. Have a qualified technician install this bath.

2.  Installation using a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) is required.

3.  It is the customer’s responsibility: 

• To contact a qualified electrical installer.

 

• To assure that electrical installation is adequate and in 

conformance with National Electrical Code (NEC).

A Technical Specifications Manual has been included with your bath

-

tub. It contains pertinent information regarding your Jacuzzi® product. 

Locate the Technical Specifications Manual at this time.

Frame out the space where the bathtub is to be located. The following 

should be taken into consideration when preparing the area:

•  Dimensions provided on rough-in diagrams are nominal. Measure 

your actual unit upon receipt and build according to the actual 

dimensions.

•  Finished alcove must have correct interior dimensions, as shown 

in the key dimension section in the Technical Specifications 

Manual, to properly install unit.

•  For three wall alcove installations, use an integral molded three-

sided tiling flange bathtub. When using the optional tile flange, 

refer to instructions that are included with kit.

•  In remodeling, if necessary, add studs at each end to provide a 

vertical nailing surface for the side nailing flanges of bath fixture 

product.

•  To avoid obstructions during installation make sure that supply 

lines, spout pipe and valve plumbing do not project into alcove.

• 

Bathtubs require a 6" x 12" (150 mm x 305 mm) floor opening for 

the 1 ½" (38 mm) drain, waste and overflow (DWO) kit.

• 

Be sure floor opening location matches bathtub fixture drain location.

•  Use of casting plaster/plaster of paris (foundation material) is recommended 

in all commercial structures (i.e. hotels, motels, dormitories, health clubs, 

etc.).

•  The unit must be supported from the bottom of the bathtub and not from the 

bathtub rim.

• 

Per UPC code, access must be provided to the pump/motor for your specific model (Figure 1 and Figure 2).

• 

Provide adequate ventilation for cooling and supply sufficient air for the pump/motor. Do not insulate around the 

equipment.

•  It is the responsibility of the installer, building contractor or owner to provide access for service. Jacuzzi is not respon-

sible for any costs relating to obtaining access for repair. The owner shall bear such costs and, if appropriate, must 

seek recovery from the installer.
