Before You Begin
CAUTION: Risk of product damage.
Do not install the bath over open floor joists. The basin area
requires no additional support when the subfloor is level and square with the stud framing. Install the
bath on an adequately supported, level subfloor. Use shims for additional support if the subfloor is
uneven.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage.
Bath units shipped in only one bath per carton are shipped with
the braces in the closed position. Units shipped in multipack cartons may have one or more set of
braces disconnected from the apron. Connect the apron braces on each unit before removing it from
box.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage.
Do not lift the bath from the carton using the apron brace. Lift
the bath at multiple points from the rim.
NOTE:
Clear silicone sealant is recommended. Use of acrylic or other caulks is not recommended.
Read all instructions before you begin.
Observe all applicable plumbing and building codes.
This bath is designed for alcove installations.
Do not remove the old fixture before you unpack and inspect the new unit.
If remodeling, measure the existing framework before removing the old fixture to ensure the new
unit will fit. Make sure that the drain is in the correct location.
Confirm that there is adequate mounting and connection space for the water supply and drain
chosen for the installation.
Upon receipt, check for shortages or damage. Report any shortages or damage immediately.
Store the bath and wall surrounds in a safe place until you begin installation to avoid damage.
The apron panel is not removable on bath units.
