INSTALLATION GUIDE
Thank you for choosing Valley Acrylic Bath. This installation manual provides general information on the
installation of our products.
All the information in this guide is based upon the most recent product information available at the time of
this publication. Valley Acrylic reserves the right to make changes to product characteristics, packaging, or availability
at any time without notice.
Thank you for your purchase!
• Please read these instructions carefully before beginning your installation.
• Consult your local building codes to ensure that your installation complies with local standards.
• Remove the unit from its packaging. Before disposing, packaging and taking unit from your sales person, inspect the
unit to make sure it is in good shape.
• Should inspection reveal any damage or defect in the finish, Contact Us. The warranty does not cover damages
or defects in the finish once the unit has been installed. Valley’s responsibility for shipping damages ceases upon
delivery of the product in good order to the carrier. All complaints regarding damage due to transport must be made
directly to the carrier.
• To protect the unit during installation, we suggest that you lay a piece of flat cardboard on the bottom and a moving
blanket until you are ready to install it to prevent damage.
• Do not remove the protective polyethylene film from your product until installation is completed to ensure maximum
protection from inadvertent damage, except in areas where two surfaces will be in permanent contact.
• Ensure that the floor is level and strong enough to support the weight of the unit.
• If your bathtub is equipped with both a whirlpool and an air system, space must be made for the air system’s blower
either inside or outside the alcove or island. If the blower cannot be installed under the bathtub, it can be located up
to 9 feet away.
• Make sure an access panel - 30” x 15” (750 mm x 400 mm) must be located near the whirlpool pump and/or the air
system blower to allow easy servicing.
• Access must be provided for each product component (water heater, light, nozzle, electronic and air control, faucet).
•Whirpool and/or air systems must be connected before final installation (see the installation and user’s guide for
whirpool and air systems).• Please refer to your product’s specification sheet and ensure that both your unit and build
plan measure match the stated sizes.
