Installation Tips

m

  

Measure the actual bathtub before building or modifying the 

stud wall framework.  The recommended measurements 

are 3/8” wider and at least 3/16” deeper than the actual size 

of the bathtub.

m

  

Turn off the hot and cold water supply during construction.

m

  

Never install our products directly on any surface that is or 

may become, wet or damp.

m

 

 Ensure all plumbing or electrical work inside the walls or 

subfloor is finished prior to installation of the bathtub and 

wall panels.

m

 

 Make sure the drain hole in the subfloor or slab is large 

enough (6” diameter recommended) and aligns with the 

hole in the bathtub.

m

 

 Verify the overflow drain plumbing will correctly connect to 

the bathtub.

m

 

 Make sure the subfloor under the bathtub is level in both 

directions.  The bathtub must be level when installed.  

Improper installation will void the warranty.

m

 

 The subfloor under the bathtub must be free of dirt, film, 

waxes, or any other residues.
