INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1. PREPARING ALCOVE

Strip to bare studs.

Alcove studs should be constructed as shown above.

Floor must be clean, smooth, and level (check with level). Sub floor must be installed as in the stud layout. Do not install tub on open floor joists.

If required, cut hole in sub floor as shown above to accommodate drain.

STEP 2. INSTALLING TUB

Trial fit tub in prepared alcove. With tub sitting flat on floor, check with level on top of tub. Tub should be level from front-to-back and side-to-side (Fig 1).

A floor leveling compound (smooth mortar) or a similar quick-setting compound specifically made for leveling floors may be used to fully support and level base.

After tub is leveled, if alcove is larger than tub, shim between tub and studs to create a tight fit. Screw tub flange to studs (Fig. 2).

CLEANING

Do not use any abrasive cleaners or metal scrapers.

If drywall mud or plaster gets on your shower, it may be carefully removed with a wooden scraper made from a piece of scrap wood.

Adhesive may be removed with mineral spirits.

Ideal cleaners are Soft Scrub Gel® or Comet Gel®.

WARNING:

Some cleaning products are not suitable for use. Read all labels carefully.

DO NOT USE if they say “not suitable for use with ABS, acrylic, or polystyrene.

FIGURE 1. Check to assure tub is level.

FIGURE 2. If necessary, shim between tub and studs for tight fit and screw to each stud.
