BASE INSTALLATION

STEP 4

Before installing the base, make sure the 4 water supply hoses are routed to seat area. If you have a with Air unit also route the air supply hose to the seat area. If you have a with Air unit also pull the 2 flow switch cables and the control panel cable through base at this time.

With the drain fitting passing over the center of the drainpipe, lower the shower base carefully into place, push down firmly until the base is in place.

You must check the level of the base in two directions. Do not lift a corner of the shower base to level the base. This will cause a loss of contact with the mortar and void your warranty. Attach the shower base flange to the stud wall and blocking with self-drilling screws (included). Use a minimum of 3 screws per flange section.

STEP 6

With a large screwdriver and the tool included with the drain, tighten the inside compression nut to seal the drain pipe connection. After drain is fully installed, test for proper drainage. If the shower base does not drain properly, rectify this condition before proceeding with the installation. Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath© is not re- sponsible for removal and/ or reinstallation costs.
