for selecting an American Standard bath. Your new 
bath is shipped to you after careful inspection. The 
whirlpool version is completely assembled with pump, 
motor, and system piping. All you need to finish the 
installation are your selected fittings and electrical 
connections for a whirlpool.

To insure maximum performance and pleasure from 
this product, please follow the instructions and 
cautions. 

GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION

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. After installation, and before 
enclosing with wallboard, tile, etc., water test the unit and check for leaks.

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 (bath filler, shower arm, etc.) are not provided with the bath and must be ordered separately. Framing and 
enclosing materials are provided by others. Check for availability of optional American Standard wall tiling bead 
(required for recess installations).

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.
