3. PRODUCT REQUIREMENTS
A. SUMMARY OF KEY REQUIREMENTS
Install unit to a level subfloor.
Provide properly dimensioned framing.
Recess installation is recommended.
B. PLUMBING SPECIFICATIONS
Confirm adequate mounting and connection space of
the faucet specified for your installation.
Confirm adequate support for the faucet; large faucets
that may be inadvertently used as a means of support
are not appropriate or safe for this installation.
In locations where plumbing is adjacent to a masonry
wall, make provisions for access to the connections.
Construct a separate wall a minimum of 6” from the
masonry wall. Install furring when the back of the unit is
against the masonry wall.
Because this is a one-piece unit, drain and overflow
connections cannot be made by reaching over the end
of the bath. Before installation, provide access to the
connections. See the Plumbing Access Considerations
section located on Page 8.
C. PRODUCT INSPECTION
Carefully unpack the whirlpool, remove the protective
tape, and and inspect the unit for damage. Leave all
materials in the carton during construction to prevent
damage.
NOTICE: Make sure both union connections to the
pump are securely tightened.
D. CONNECTIONS AND SERVICE ACCESS
Before installation, ensure proper access to the final
connections.
NOTICE: Provide unrestricted service access to the
pump. An access panel must be constructed to allow for
sufficient clearance for servicing the pump or controls.
The access panel must be located at the pump end of the
whirlpool.
