Installation Instructions for Remote Blower
For ease of installation of remote blower and air line fittings, it is recommended there be access to the underside of the bathtub,
either from above or below the sub floor.
Determine the locations for the blower and verify that access to blower and airline fittings will be possible after bathtub is
installed. Blower location must be within 10 feet of the tub with no more than three elbows as illustrated (Fig. 6).
Use 1-1/2” schedule 40 PVC to connect the bathtub to the blower. Pipe connected directly to the blower should be secured
with a stainless steel screw. Do not glue blower to the PVC.
The control cable provided with the tub is 25’ long. Do not wrap the cable along the pipe from blower to bathtub.
Once airline fittings and control cable are connected to the blower, plug the blower into the outlet and test the operation
before completing the installation.

After locating the drain alignment kit, electrical, and water supply lines with
the supplied template (Modena
™
only), use a marker to trace the inside
footprint of the skirt in the location where the bathtub will be placed. Add
silicone only to the bottom of the skirt and place back in the marked
area (Fig. 7).
Install the overflow drain kit onto the bathtub with the supplied brass
tailpiece that is included in the drain alignment kit (Modena
™
only). Be sure
to apply the supplied grease to the end of the tailpiece where it will
connect to the drain alignment kit (Fig. 9).
Place (2) four foot long 2” x 4” wood supports across the top of the skirt.
Position the wood supports evenly over the skirt as illustrated (Fig. 8). They
will support the bathtub during the connection of the water supply lines and
the electrical connection.
Place the bathtub onto the wood supports in the position that it will be
lowered into the skirt (Fig. 9). The wood supports need to be positioned
under the bathtub away from the foam blocks or adjustable brackets. Orient
the bathtub properly with respect to the electrical outlet and the drain. Also,
make sure the drain and overflow areas line up with the drain alignment kit.
Connect the flexible water supply lines to the faucets if using a deck
mounted faucet. Make certain the valves are in the closed position. Turn on
the water supply and check for leaks at all connections.
Connect the electrical plug to the dedicated GFCI-protected outlet.
Lower the bathtub into place. Three people will be required to lower the
bathtub into the skirt (one person at each end to lift the bathtub, and the
third person to remove the two wood supports from the top of the bathtub
skirt).
Take care not to damage the brass tailpiece while lowering the bathtub into
the skirt (Modena
™
only).
Turn on power to the dedicated GFCI-protected circuit and check vsystem
operations.
