Important! These instructions include suggestions for rough construction,
drywall installation and plumbing installation that we believe to be
reliable. Local building codes vary by location and could supersede
those suggestions. If you are not confident in your ability to perform
these tasks, you should use a professional installer or contract out
those tasks you need help with.
REQUIREMENTS FOR A SUCCESSFUL INSTALLATION
1. Read these instructions and confirm that tub will fit in the intended
alcove and that the drain end is located where required before beginning
installation.
2. The alcove wall studs should be located as shown in Illustration 1 and
be plumb. If the studs are not plumb, shimming may be required. It is
important that a stud is located as shown (*) for attachment of the
vertical flange on each side of the tub apron. Other studs should be
located according to local building codes.
• Rough plumbing must be installed before tub and/or wall panels.
Illustration 2 shows suggested location of fixtures if new plumbing
is being installed. Provide an access panel on the back side of the
wall with the plumbing fixtures. If plumbing exists, check that fixtures
will clear tub and panels. All plumbing must meet local building
codes.
• The tub must be installed on a solid and level sub-floor that is square
with the wall studs. The tub support must sit directly on a level sub-
floor.
• Use the cutout from the tub carton to protect the tub from damage
during installation.
• The tub and wall set should not be installed in areas where the
temperature may drop below freezing (32ºF or 0ºC).
• Allow tub and wall set to reach room temperature for 30 minutes
before installing.
Important: The alcove studs must be plumb and square to the floor!
Inside corners of the alcove should be square (refer to Illustration 3).
3. Special installations:
• Above the floor drains
Create a platform of 2 x 4's (or taller depending on drain requirements)
to raise the entire tub area and cover it with sub-flooring. This platform
must be level and square to the wall studs. When installing plumbing,
add platform height to the dimensions shown in Illustration 2.
• Masonry walls
Construct a 2 x 6 stud wall for the plumbing end. Apply 2 x 2 furring
strips to the masonry wall in the same locations as the studs in
Illustration 1.
• Installation over greenboard or firewalls
If you are installing wall panels over greenboard and/or firewall
material, and not directly on the studs, your dimensions must take
into account the thickness of this material and measurements should
be taken from the inside of the finished walls.
