3. Secure the Bath to the Subfloor
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not support the bath by the rim.
Choose the installation option that best applies to your particular installation.
If the subfloor is not level, shim the bath support blocks as necessary.
Option 1: Secure Using Cement or Mortar Bed
Spread a 2" (5.1 cm) thick layer of cement or mortar on the subfloor where the bath will be placed.
This will help secure, level and support the bath.
NOTE: The support blocks must rest directly on the support floor.
Clear all the material away from the support block locations.
NOTE: Do not use gypsum cement or drywall compound for this application, as they will not provide an
acceptable, durable bond.
Position a piece of plastic drop cloth or similar material over the cement or mortar bed.
With help, carefully lift the bath into place and make sure the support blocks do not rest in the bed
material. Verify that the bath is level and resting on all support blocks.
Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap.
Option 2: Secure Using Construction Adhesive
Apply a generous amount of high-quality construction adhesive to the bottom of the support blocks.
With help, carefully lift the bath into place and verify it is level and resting on all support blocks.
Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap.
