Before You Begin

This product is designed for drop-in island installation. Undermount and alcove installations are also possible.

You must install the bath onto an adequately supported, level sub¯oor.

Provide properly dimensioned framing.

Choose a ®ll spout which will provide adequate reach and a minimum 2º (5.1cm) air gap above the bathing well rim of the unit. You may need to build up the deck material to obtain adequate air space because the outer rim may be lower than the bathing well rim depending on the speci®c area of the bath.

Follow local plumbing codes.

The unit must be ®lled with water through the bathing well, not the over¯ow channel.

If you plan to install a deck-mounted, hand-held shower, the diverter vacuum breaker must maintain a minimum 1º (2.5cm) air gap above the outer rim.

When using the K-922 or K-923 Laminar Bath Spout with drip tray K-924, the distance from the ®nished wall to the outside wall of over¯ow channel should not exceed 2º (5.1cm).
