CAUTION: Risk of product damage.

NOTICE:

Do not support the bath by the rim.

Unless otherwise specified, floor support under the bath must provide for a minimum of 80

lbs./square foot (390 kg./square meter) loading.

Make sure the flooring offers adequate support for your bath, and verify that the subfloor is flat and level.
This bath may be installed in a drop-in or in an island installation. An island installation requires a four side
surround. In both instances, make sure the deck is adequately supported.
Install an access panel to allow the blower, the controller and the keypad to be serviced. Jalousie access is
recommended. Please refer to rough-in for exact location of access panel.
Construct brick or concrete supports.
Provide a 2mm gap between the bath rim and the concrete or brick framing.
