Installation Procedures (cont.)
6. Spot-fasten the two bottom corners and the two top corners of the vertical side nailing flange.
7. Nail/fasten at each stud through the topside flanges at each stud 16"
(405 mm) on center, working from both ends toward back center.
Complete the fastening through vertical side flange, approximately 8"
(205 mm) on center.
8. When other than cementitious backer board is to be used, furring
strips as thick as nailing flanges are recommended for installation
on studs above the installed unit to assure walls will be flush. 100%
silicone sealant with mildew resistant properties should be applied
between the backer board and horizontal surface of unit (Figure 12).
Then finished wall materials can be applied.
WARNING!
Finishing of other trades should be done
in conformance with applicable codes and generally accepted
building practices.
9. Turn on the power supply to the dedicated GFCI protected circuits
and check system operation.
10. Caulk around the perimeter of bathtub to seal the space between the
rim and the finished deck (Figure 12).
CAUTION!
Apply a continuous bead of silicone sealant
around the entire seam between the counter and the bathtub rim.
Allow sealant to cure according to manufacturer’s instructions.
For Optional Tile Flange
1. Install the flange (purchased separately) according to the instructions
that are included with the kit. If the bathtub is equipped with an
integrated flange, refer to 3-wall alcove installtion, page 9.
2. Place the bathtub into the niche. Screw the flange to the wood stud. It
may be necessary to shim the unit to close up any gaps between the
wood stud and the flange (Figure 13).
