GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION
IMPORTANT
Carefully uncrate and inspect your new bath for any shipping damage. If such damage is found, report
it to your vendor immediately. After inspection and during installation, protect the bath from construction
damage.
Before installation, and before enclosing with wallboard, tile, etc., the bath must be filled
with water and operated to check for leaks that may have resulted from shipping damage
or mishandling.
Do not make modifications to the whirlpool system or remove pump from factory
mounting. This could adversely affect the safety and performance of the whirlpool and void the warranty.
Do not handle or move the whirlpool by the pump, motor, or piping system. Fittings are not provided with
the bath and must be ordered separately. Framing and enclosing materials are provided by others.
For electrical requirements, refer to section titled “Whirlpool Electrical Installation Instructions”.
Check for availability of optional American Standard wall tiling bead (required for recess installation).
Protect all finished surfaces of the whirlpool during construction and installation using a drop cloth.
!
WARNING:
DO NOT LIFT WHIRLPOOL BY THE PIPING HARNESS AT ANY TIME.
