POST - INSTALLATION TESTING AND CLEANING
:
POST-INSTALL SYSTEM TEST:
After installation, make sure all the plumbing, whirlpool and air massage system connections are
correctly installed, then run the following tests.
1. Before filling the tub with water, be sure to remove all loose debris from tub. Wipe down the door
seal using a damp cloth, as well as the surface in the doorjamb that will come in contact with the
door seal.
2. Fill the tub to the overflow and check for leaks. Check by hand where visual verification is not
possible.
3. Turn the pump and/or blower on and let it run for at least 15 minutes. Check for leaks while the
pump(s) are running and again after they are turned off. Check by hand where visual verification
is not possible.
4.
Drain the tub making sure the stopper raises properly and the tub drains rapidly.
This is an important step to assure that the drain assembly operates correctly
under pressure from a completely full tub.
POST-INSTALL CLEANING:
WARNING
Under no circumstances use wire brushes, metal sponges, knives, steel
wool or scouring pads on any part of the tub. Do not use solvents that
contain petroleum distillates such as acetone, lacquer, paint-thinner,
benzene or any other abrasive cleanser on any part of the tub. Ammonia
and chlorine-based agents cannot be used on any plated surface.
The use of any of the above mentioned products can scratch, dull or
remove the finish of the tub and/or plated surfaces and will void the
warranty.
1. Remove any blobs of plaster and/or dabs of paint that have adhered to the surface by gently
scraping them off with a wood or plastic edge.
2. Oil, grease spots or other difficult stains can be lifted with denatured alcohol.
3. Liquid, non-bleach laundry detergent can remove most construction residue.
4. For tough stains and surface scratches, lightly rubbing with a liquid cleaning compound (such as
polishing compound used for cars), followed by a light application of liquid or paste wax, will
restore luster to any dulled surface.
5. Clean plated surfaces with warm water only.
