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. Follow the appropriate instructions.
- If the subfloor is not level, shim the bath support blocks as necessary.
Option for Using a Cement or Mortar Bed
- Spread a 2" (5cm) thick layer of cement or mortar on the subfloor where the bath will be set. This will help secure,
level, and support the unit.
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 material on top of the cement or mortar bed. With help, carefully lift the bath
into place.
- Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap. Make sure the bath is level and resting on all support blocks.
- Remove the protective tape from the rim. Apply a continuous bead of high quality silicone sealant around the
entire rim of the bath.
Option for 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 position.
- Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap. Make sure the bath is level and resting on all support blocks.
- Remove the protective tape from the rim. Apply a continuous bead of high quality silicone sealant around the
entire rim of the bath.
