Plumbing and Water Supply

Plumbing

All Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath products are factory tested for proper operation and watertight connections prior to shipping. If leaks are detected, notify your Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath dealer. Do not install the unit.

Water Supply

Consult local authorities for plumbing code requirements in your area.

IMPORTANT: Proper installation of the fill spout plumb- ing and compliance with local codes are the responsibil- ity of the installer. Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath does not war- rant connections of water supply fittings and piping, fill systems, or drain/overflow systems. Nor is it responsible for damage to the bath which occurs during installation.

CAUTION: A nonflammable protective barrier must be placed between soldering work and bath unit to prevent damage to the bath.

Faucet Installation

NOTE: Selecting a faucet for rim mounting:

The combined thickness at the rim of the tub shell and the wood trim is 2" (50,8 mm) nominal. The length of the faucet tailpiece(s) must be long enough to extend past this dimension and have ample clearance to assemble any hardware (i.e. locknut, water supply fittings, etc.) neces- sary for installation. For undermount units, the combined thickness of the tub shell is 1/2" (12, 7 mm) nominal and the undermount deck should not exceed the length of the faucet tailpiece(s) including any assembly hardware.

Drain Overflow (supplied)

A drain/overflow assembly must be installed on the bath, water tested, and connected to the sanitary system of the house. After opening the carton, inspect for damage or missing parts.

NOTE: The overflow fitting (supplied) of the drain/over- flow assembly MUST be installed before the wood frame or (for undermount tubs) the counter is installed.

Overflow Fitting Installation

Remove and open the overflow fitting from the drain kit (supplied). Remove washers and nuts from the overflow fit- ting.

Place a small bead of plumbers putty, silicone, or similar approved sealant around the underside of the top flange. Place the overflow fitting into the overflow hole of the tub.

From the underside of the unit, place the rubber washer then locknut on the fitting and tighten securely. Be careful not to over tighten.

The overflow fitting accepts 1-1/2" (38 mm) slip joint type drain line connections. Assemble in accordance with local plumbing or building codes.

After the drain is fully installed, test for proper drainage. If the unit does not drain properly, rectify this condition before proceeding with the installation. Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath is not responsible for removal and or reinstallation costs.

NOTE: Watertight installation of the drain is the installer's responsibility. Drain leakage is excluded from the Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath warranty of this product.

Acrylic Surfaces

To avoid dulling and scratching the acrylic surface of the bath, never use abrasive cleaners. A mild liquid detergent and warm water will clean soiled surfaces.

Remove spilled plaster with a wood or plastic edge. Metal tools will scratch the surface. Spots left by plaster or grout can be removed if lightly rubbed with detergent on a damp cloth or sponge.

CAUTION: Use of chemicals and/or chemical cleaners may be hazardous to your health.

Paint, tar, or other difficult surface stains can be removed with paint thinner, turpentine, or isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol). NOTE: use these chemicals only on ACRYLIC SURFACE stains.

Minor scratches which do not penetrate the color finish can be removed by lightly sanding with 600-grit wet/dry sandpaper. You can restore the glossy finish to the acrylic surface of the bath with a special compound, Meguiar's #10 Mirror Glaze. If that is not available, use automotive rubbing compound followed by an application of automotive paste wax.

Major scratches and gouges which penetrate the acrylic surface will require refinishing. Ask your Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath dealer for special instructions or visit our web site at http://www.jacuzzi.com/. To find service agent listings for:

Wood Surfaces

Cleaning

Your teak/wenge wood is dissolved by strong or corrosive cleaners, so always use the mildest cleaner. NOTE: DO NOT USE HARSH CLEANERS ON WOOD SURFACES.

CAUTION: Use of chemicals and/or chemical cleaners may be hazardous to your health.

A 75/25 mixture of liquid laundry detergent and chlorine bleach may be adequate. Apply this mixture with a stiff brush, scrubbing lightly with the grain. Leave it on the wood for several minutes to give the detergent time to suspend the dirt and the bleach time to lighten the wood, then rinse the wood thoroughly, brushing it to clear the grain. Allow to dry.
