BEFORE YOU BEGIN
PREPARATION
S
Install the unit to a level subfloor.
S
Provide properly dimensioned framing.
S
Insulate all exterior walls before installation.
S
The basin area requires no additional support
when the subfloor is plumb and level with respect
to the stud frame. Shim as needed to level the
module.
S
For optimum accessibility, specify faucets and
fittings to install and operate within the control area
shown in the roughing-in diagrams.
TRANSPORTATION/PROTECTION
S
Protect the floor of the module during installation.
S
When moving the module, avoid flexing the side
walls to prevent radius cracking.
CODE CONSIDERATIONS
S
When fire-rated wall is specified, the stud opening
dimensions are to the inside of the wallboard.
S
If the module is to be installed adjacent to vertical
ducts or chases, fire-rated wallboard should
surround the module.
OTHER PLUMBING CONCERNS
S
Before
beginning,
instructions included with options and accessories.
S
In locations where plumbing is adjacent to a
masonry wall, make provisions for access to the
connections. Construct a separate wall at least 6"
(15.2cm) from the masonry wall. Install furring
when the back of the unit is against the masonry
wall.

ACCESS REQUIREMENTS
S
Be sure you have enough access to move the
module into the construction area.
S
One-piece shower modules are too large to fit
through standard door openings. Therefore, this
multi-piece module is designed to be separated
into sections for moving into the installation area.
Once near the installation area, reassemble the
module and move it within the installation area.
S
Until you are ready to begin the actual installation,
leave the packaging material in place to prevent
damage. Protect the module from damage.
S
Protect the module from damage after installation.
S
Connect the valve to the water supplies, and check
for leaks before installing the module.
S
Locate the rough plumbing for the drain in
accordance with the roughing-in dimensions.
S
Position the plumbing as required by the
manufacturer's instructions.
S
Before
installation,
connections. Because the module must be
installed as an assembled "one-piece" module, the
drain and overflow connections cannot be made by
reaching over the end of the module.
