Installation Tips

Measure the actual bathtub before building or modifying
the stud wall framework.  The recommended
measurements are 3/8” wider and at least 3/16” deeper
than the actual size of the bathtub.

Turn off the hot and cold water supply during
construction.

Never install our products directly on any surface that
is or may become, wet or damp.

Ensure all plumbing or electrical work inside the walls
or subfloor is finished prior to installation of the
bathtub and wall panels.

Make sure the drain hole in the subfloor or slab is
large enough (6” diameter recommended) and aligns
with the hole in the bathtub.

Verify the overflow drain plumbing will correctly
connect to the bathtub.

Make sure the subfloor under the bathtub is level in
both directions.  The bathtub must be level when
installed.  Improper installation will void the warranty.

The subfloor under the bathtub must be free of dirt,
film, waxes, or any other residues.
