INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (cont.)
Jason offers a removable lateral skirt for most baths. The
skirts are available in matching acrylic colors and provide
convenient access to bath equipment as well as an ex-
cellent finished appearance. However, if Jason’s lateral
skirt is not used, an access panel MUST be provided to
enable final electrical connections and service. Please
refer to the minimum recommended access panel size
in
Table 1 - Specifications
.
If a Jason lateral skirt is to be used, the bath deck must
be leveled at 20.5” (52cm) from the support floor or the
skirt will not fit properly.
2. 100% Silicone with mildew resistant properties should
be applied between the water resistant backer board and
the deck of the bath.
NOTE: If you use a tile flange kit,
modify the framing to support the bath lip as shown
in Figure 1.

according to the instructions provided with the drain and
position the bath in the area of intended installation.

please refer to the included instructions and install at this
time.
