C. PROTECT BATH SURFACE
Use a drop cloth or similar material
to protect the bottom surface of the
bath.
Clean the bath to reduce the risk of
product damage.
4. INSTALL BATH
A. POSITION BATH
CAUTION: Risk of product
damage. Do not hang the unit
by the rim.
Apply a generous amount of
construction adhesive to the support
blocks. Carefully move the bath into
the recess. Make sure the unit is
level. Install shims between the bath
and subfloor if necessary.
Insert the drain tailpiece into the
trap.
Apply a bead of silicone sealant
under the rim of the bath.
B. INTEGRAL FLANGE MODELS
Drill pilot holes through the
nailing-in flange at the stud centers.
Add shims between the nailing-in
flange and the studs as needed to
eliminate gaps.
Use #6 large-head galvanized nails
to secure the nailing-in flange to the
studs.
Install furring strips to the studs to
shim out to the edge of the
nailing-in flange.
