3. PRODUCT REQUIREMENTS

A.  SUMMARY OF KEY REQUIREMENTS

S

Provide properly dimensioned framing.

S

Bath can be installed as a corner, recess or sunk-
en installation.

B.  PLUMBING SPECIFICATIONS

If using a rim mounted bath faucet, flexible connections
between the valves and spout may be required. Confirm
adequate mounting and connection space of specified
faucet for your installation. 

Confirm adequate support for faucet; large faucets that
may be inadvertently used as a means of support are not
appropriate or safe for this installation.

C.  PRODUCT INSPECTION

Carefully uncrate and inspect your product for damage.
Leave all materials in carton during construction to
prevent damage.

NOTICE: Make sure both connections to the
whirlpool pump are securely tightened.

D.  CONNECTIONS AND SERVICE ACCESS

Before installation, ensure proper access to the final
connections.

NOTICE: Provide  unrestricted  service access to
the pump.
  An access panel 20” W x 15” H minimum
must be constructed to allow for sufficient clearance for
servicing the pump or controls. The access panel must
be located at the pump end of the whirlpool, through an
adjoining wall.

E.  ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

K-852-V-AB:   The installation must have a Class A
Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI). The GFCI
protects against line-to-ground shock hazard. Use a
120V, 15A, 60 Hz separate service for the whirlpool.
Provide a separate equipment grounding conductor for
the inside grounding lug. Ground must not be connected
to any current-carrying conductor except at the main
service breaker box.

K-852-JA-AA: The installation must have an Earth
Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB). This will provide
additional protection against line-to-ground shock
hazard. A 230V, 50 Hz separate circuit that provides 15A
of continuous service is required.
