STEP 2. ROUGH-IN PLUMBING

A.Install water lines and rough plumbing. Valve should be located between 36" and 48" from the floor. Use blocking and secure with pipe straps.

B.If stationary shower is used, install shower riser. Suggested shower head location is 78" from the floor (above the endwall).

C.The locations of the valves, mixers, and shower head should be determined before the walls are placed in position. Where access to connections is limited, allow enough flexibility in the supply lines for easier position- ing of the valves after the unit is in place.

From stable reference points such as subfloor and front of the double studs, measure and note the locations of the valves, shower head arm and connec- tion for body spray jets.

STEP 3

Install Shower Base per Shower Base Instructions.

A.For proper fit and installation of the custom shower system it is imperative that the shower base is level on all sides and the wall structure is plumb.

NOTE: Watertight installation of the drain is the installer’s responsibility. Drain leakage is excluded from the Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath warranty of this product. (See “Drain Installation Instructions” provided with drain.)
