DANGER

Be certain all plumbing work is performed by a qualified plumber and is in compliance with local codes.

WARNINGS

Be certain all plumbing work is performed by a qualified plumber and is in compliance with local codes.

Some state and local plumbing codes require the installation of a “reduced pressure zone” (RPZ) assembly on both the incoming hot and cold supply lines to prevent back flow contamination into the potable water system. Invacare recommends you check local plumbing code requirements to determine if RPZs are required on your tub installation. RPZs are NOT supplied by Invacare and are to be provided by the customer if required.
