General Installation Information

Carefully uncrate and inspect your new bath for any shipping damage. If such damage is found, report it to your vendor immediately. After inspection and during installation, protect the bath from construction damage. Before installation, and before enclosing with wallboard, tile, etc., water test the unit and check for leaks. Do not make modifications to the whirlpool system or remove pump from factory mounting. This could adversely affect the safety and performance of the whirlpool and void the warranty. Do not handle or move the whirlpool by the pump, motor, or piping system. Fittings (bath filler, shower arm, etc.) are not provided with the bath and must be ordered separately. Framing and enclosing materials are provided by others.

enclosure!

Locate studs as required. insure rough dimensions are proper, plumb and square. For whirlpools, access to pump/motor may be made through access opening in apron panel. The following procedure must be used for all installations: leveling support stringer should be as indicated. this bath is not self-supporting and must be supported along it's entire bottom. Support with mortar or grout. Position bathtub/whirlpool within the recess, check level, front to back, side to side, and shim as necessary. To secure the tub to wood studs use drywall screws w/washers or roofing nails immediately above the flange of the tub.To secure the tub to steel studs use 4" drywall screws and flatwashers.

2425E-RHO, 2425E-LHO specifications

The American Standard 2425E-RHO and 2425E-LHO bathtubs exemplify the brand's commitment to providing high-quality, luxurious bathing experiences. These models, featuring an elegant and modern design, are ideal for both contemporary and traditional bathrooms. With their spacious interiors, they offer ample room for relaxation, making them a desirable choice for homeowners seeking comfort and style.

One of the standout features of the 2425E series is its ergonomic design, providing optimal support for the body while bathing. The sloped backrest ensures that users can recline comfortably, while the wide edges create a perfect space for bath accessories. The seamless, glossy surface is easy to clean and resistant to mildew and mold, thereby promoting a healthier bathroom environment.

The 2425E-RHO model is specifically designed for right-hand installations, offering flexibility in bathroom layouts. Conversely, the 2425E-LHO is tailored for left-hand installations, catering to various plumbing configurations. This adaptability allows homeowners to choose the best fit for their space, enhancing overall functionality.

Both models are constructed from high-quality acrylic, which not only enhances durability but also contributes to excellent heat retention, ensuring that bathwater stays warm for longer periods. The lightweight nature of the acrylic material makes installation simpler and quicker, a significant advantage for contractors and DIY enthusiasts alike.

American Standard incorporates innovative technologies in these bathtubs, including a slip-resistant surface for added safety. This feature is particularly beneficial for families with young children or elderly individuals, offering peace of mind during bath time. Additionally, the bathtubs come with pre-drilled holes for easy faucet installation, streamlining the setup process.

The sleek, contemporary lines of both the 2425E-RHO and 2425E-LHO models not only add to their aesthetic appeal but also ensure that they blend seamlessly into various bathroom styles. Available in multiple finishes, these bathtubs allow homeowners to personalize their space while maintaining a high level of sophistication.

In summary, the American Standard 2425E-RHO and 2425E-LHO bathtubs deliver a combination of style, comfort, and practicality.
