Subfloor
Prepare the subfloor for the drain and ensure that the area is level.
1. The drain/overflow of the bathtub extends below the bottom of the bathtub. Identify the drawing in the Technical
Specifications Manual that corresponds with your bathtub.
2. Make appropriate cuts to the subfloor to accommodate the drain.
3. The Jacuzzi Tru-Level® base is a standard feature on all bathtubs. If the subfloor is level and a continuous surface, no
other preparation is necessary. Proceed to the “Electrical Connections” section.
4. If the subfloor is not level, you must level the entire surface prior to installing the bathtub. The materials used will
insure that the bathtub is supported from the bottom. These materials include: leveling compound, mortar, plaster or
minimal expansion structural foam (having a density of a minimum 5 lbs/cubic foot). The bathtub must remain level in
order for it to drain properly and must make contact with the leveling material. Both sides of a joint or splice of subfloor
should be level to each other.
