Installation Tips
m
Measure the actual bathtub before building or modifying the
stud wall framework. The recommended measurements
are 3/8” wider and at least 3/16” deeper than the actual size
of the bathtub.
m
Turn off the hot and cold water supply during construction.
m
Never install our products directly on any surface that is or
may become, wet or damp.
m
Ensure all plumbing or electrical work inside the walls or
subfloor is finished prior to installation of the bathtub and
wall panels.
m
Make sure the drain hole in the subfloor or slab is large
enough (6” diameter recommended) and aligns with the
hole in the bathtub.
m
Verify the overflow drain plumbing will correctly connect to
the bathtub.
m
Make sure the subfloor under the bathtub is level in both
directions. The bathtub must be level when installed.
Improper installation will void the warranty.
m
The subfloor under the bathtub must be free of dirt, film,
waxes, or any other residues.
