5. Integral Tile Lip Alcove Installation
After the bath has been leveled, confirm the height
measurement of the underside of the flange deck in
order to install a 1”x2” ledger strip to support the tile lip
flange (see
Figure 4
).
Figure 4
Install the 1” x 2” support ledger strip to the framing to
allow support along the entire rear ledge of the bath
(see
Figures 2 and 5
).
6. Tile Flange
100% Silicone with mildew resistant properties should
be applied between the water resistant backer board
and the deck of the deck.
Note:
If you use a tile flange kit, modify the framing to
support the bath lip as shown in
Figure 5
.

7. Acrylic Bath Surface
The acrylic surface of this bath has been provided with
a protective film which helps protect the bath during
shipment and installation. If the bath is tiled in, remove
the necessary portion of the film when installing the tile.
Additional protection may also be required to protect
the acrylic surface during installation. Protect the acrylic
bath surface from damage during installation with a
suitable material, i.e. cardboard and/or plastic film.
8. Cleaning
Remove all loose debris. Construction plaster or excess
grout can be removed with the use of a wood (edge)
trowel. Paint or tar stains may need to be removed with
a cleaner such as paint thinner, turpentine or rubbing
alcohol. Never allow the cleaner to soak against the
acrylic surface for long periods of time.
Always rinse
the surface immediately following the use of
cleaners.
9. Water Testing
Before finishing the installation, it is recommended that
the bath be water tested and any plumbing tested for
leaks.
