These instructions are to be followed in installing the soaking
bath vessel, overflows, fill spouts, and faucetry. Electrical
connection is not needed.
See the uSER MaINTENaNCE INSTRuCTIONS section on page 3 for
humidity and mold prevention suggestions prior to Installation.
INSTALLATION
Remove the product from its packaging. Read the entire
instructions prior to installing this product. Each bath is
provided with a cardboard bath well protector that should be
kept in the unit throughout the bathroom construction process.
See
Figure 1
and
Figure 1-a
.
1. Position the template to the finished floor in its desired
location. Transfer the centerlines of the template to the
finished floor.
CauTION:
Use a marker, or tape that can
be removed from the finished floor after installation. Tape
the template to the finished floor using care to align both
centerlines and assure that the template is laying flat on
floor. See
Figure 2
and
Figure 2-a.
2. Cut or punch through the template and mark the floor
where the two lines will represent the location of the interior
bottom supports.
3. Cut or fold back the template to mark the outside of the
base lines. This will locate where the outside of the base
will be aligned. (
NOTE:
Tape may be used instead of marks
where the bath is being placed on a finished floor.) With
a straight edge and the marks from earlier, mark the two
lines on the floor, where the two bottom support ribs will

sit. The supports are approximately ½” wide and run the
length of the base.
4. Dry fit the drain to the bath per instructions included to
determine the proper fit.
5. Attach the bath drain to the floor drain “P” trap.
CauTION:
Only dry fit the drain to the “P” trap at this time. Leave the
drain assembly free standing in the “P” trap.
6. Place the bath using caution not to scratch the surface.
Align the bath with the centerlines of the template. Assure
that the drain is positioned properly. Remove the bath and
the template.
7. Apply
/4” to
3
/8” bead of adhesive approximately 2” from
the end opposite the sump, and all the way to the sump
area. Apply the adhesive in a zig-zag pattern, back and
forth across the lines. This will insure the supports locate
in the adhesive. See
Figure 2
and
Figure 2-a.
.
8. Place 4 small blocks,
3
/4” thick at the edge line of the base,
to support the bath above the adhesive, until it is aligned
into place. Place the bath on the blocks and align it with
the marks created in step above.
9. Once the bath is placed, remove the blocks one at a time,
and assure alignment with the marks. Now permanently
attach the drain tee to the “P” trap.
0.Fill the bath and check for any leaks.
Allow 24 hours before using the bath to insure that the
adhesive has fully cured.
