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.
Verify the bath is level.
Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap.
NOTE: An access panel will simplify future maintenance.
Remove the protective tape from the bath rim.
Apply a continuous bead of silicone sealant around the entire rim of the bath.
Option 2: Secure Using Construction Adhesive

With help, carefully lift the bath into place.
Verify the bath is level.
Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap.
