1. Prepare the Framing
Framing Considerations
CAUTION: Risk of property damage.
When planning the framing for the height of the bath, take
into consideration the height of the bath
with
the feet.
Do not support the bath by the framing or
bath rim.
When planning the framing, take into consideration the thickness of the water-resistant deck
material and finished material.
If a deck-mount faucet and valving are planned, ensure that adequate space is available for their
installation.
An access panel is recommended to simplify future maintenance to plumbing.
NOTICE:
To ensure the bath rim running the length of the bath will be used as intended:
Ensure a 1/16
″
(2 mm) gap will exist between the finished material and the underside of the bath
rim.
Allow a minimum of 2
″
(5.1 cm) of clearance between the edge of the bath rim and the finished
wall.
Prepare the Site
NOTICE:
It is critical that the bath be installed on a subfloor that is level and will support 79 lbs/square
foot (386 kg/square meter) loading.
Install a level subfloor. Adjust for level, if necessary.
Construct 2x4 or 2x6 stud framing designed for your particular installation. Refer to the roughing-in
information packed with the bath for dimensions.
Position the plumbing according to the roughing-in information. Cap the supplies and check for
leaks.
18-3/4" (47.6 cm) Max

Construct 2x4 or 2x6 stud
framing according to the
roughing-in information.
