LEVELING THE WALK-IN TUB
BEFORE Installing the Walk-in Bathtub
1.
Check the floor area where the tub is to be installed.
(a)
Clean area of any debris or trash.
(b)
Use a 5’ or 6’ level and determine if the floor is level. If the floor is not level, adjust all
levelling feet to perfectly level the tub. Note: It is important that all levelling feet are
completely touching the floor and level. You may find you have to adjust the middle legs
lower then the others to slightly raise up the middle of the bath for the door system to
work properly.
2.
Check to ensure that the drain rough has been placed at the proper location.
3.
Ensure that the proper electrical service has been installed at the pump location. See
electrical requirements below.
