and all water must be drained from
the bathtub before proceeding.

Choose a location for your Pure Heat heater close to the hydromassage jet pump, ensuring there is
at
least 2-1/2” of
plumbing left on each side of the cuts
to install the tailpieces. For convenience, a
template has been
provided on the back page of this instruction booklet. Simply detach, position
against plumbing and mark according to plumbing size (see Fig. 20).
4 -
Using a hacksaw, PVC cutter or a cable saw, cut the pipe at the marks made. If using a cable saw,
carefully line the saw blade up with the marks that were made in the previous step and begin cutting
using an alternating pulling/releasing motion (see Fig. 21). Once successfully cut away, discard the
detached portion of plumbing.

De-burr
the plumbing, clean outer surface of plumbing and prepare the surfaces for gluing.
6 -
Your Pure Heat heater includes three (3) sets of tailpieces
(1 set for 2” plumbing) to adapt the heater to
virtually any hydromassage bathtubs plumbing system. Dry fit the tail pieces to determine
which
tailpieces adapt properly to your plumbing and discard the tailpieces that do not fit.
Note: Let the saw blade do the
work, do not put excess pressure
on the plumbing. Have someone
else stabilize the plumbing while
you cut if needed.
