INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (cont.)
7. Mortar is required when the subfloor is not smooth and
level; when additional sound insulation is desired; or when
the bath is installed in a drop-in application. In alcove
installations, a bed of mortar may also be recommended
to aid in leveling the bath.
NOTE:
Do not use a sand
bed to install or level the bath.
8.
Secure the bottom of all equipment mounts so that it
is level with the bottom of the bath.
Position the bath
in the area of intended installation and cut the equipment
support strap(s) to allow the equipment to rest firmly on
the floor. We recommend securing the equipment mounts
to the floor with removable fasteners for ease of servic-
ing.
9.
Protect the acrylic bath surface from damage during
installation with a suitable material, i.e., cardboard
and/or plastic film.
The acrylic surface of this bath
has been provided with a protective film which helps
protect the bath during shipment and installation. Ad-
ditional protection may also be required to protect the
acrylic surface during installation. If the bath is tiled in,
remove the necessary portion of the film when installing
the tile.
