4.
If a Cascade Reservoir is to be installed with the tub, continue with “Unpacking the
Reservoir”. If not, skip to “Water Supply Hose Connections”.
Unpacking the Reservoir:
1.
Remove the Reservoir from the shipping crate.
2.
Locate and save the installation parts.
3.
Remove all access doors and place them where they will not be damaged during the
installation process.
Tub Modifications for Reservoir:
Cascade tubs are manufactured and packed for installation without a reservoir. To install it
with a reservoir, a couple of modifications are required.
1.
Remove the “wall trim” from the end of the tub. This is the “off white” colored trim that
is pressed onto the edge of the fiberglass that would go against the wall. Replace it with
the blue trim that is packed with the reservoir. The “off white” trim can be discarded.
2.
Remove the black hole plug located just above the overflow escutcheon by removing the
plastic nut. This plug and nut can be discarded
3.
Replace the plug with the reservoir outlet fitting, Gasket, and outlet adapter. (These are
packed with the reservoir) See figure 9 for assembly order. Ensure that the opening of the
outlet fitting is pointed directly down after final tightening.
4.
Unscrew and remove the cap from the water line port that points out the back of the tub.
This will be the connecting point for the reservoir supply hose.
Assembling the Reservoir:
1.
Locate the Reservoir at the back end of the Cascade tub and use the provided hardware
(3/8 x 3 3/4” bolts, flat washers, and hex nuts) to affix the reservoir to the frame of the
tub’s frame through the holes provided. Ensure that the reservoir is centered with the tub.
Snug up the hex nuts, but do not over-tighten the nuts.
