3.PRODUCT REQUIREMENTS

A.SUMMARY OF KEY REQUIREMENTS

SInstall unit to a level subfloor.

SProvide properly dimensioned framing.

SRecess installation is recommended.

B. PLUMBING SPECIFICATIONS

Confirm adequate mounting and connection space of the faucet specified for your installation.

Confirm adequate support for the faucet; large faucets that may be inadvertently used as a means of support are not appropriate or safe for this installation.

In locations where plumbing is adjacent to a masonry wall, make provisions for access to the connections. Construct a separate wall a minimum of 6º from the masonry wall. Install furring when the back of the unit is against the masonry wall.

Because this is a one-piece unit, drain and overflow connections cannot be made by reaching over the end of the bath. Before installation, provide access to the connections. See the Plumbing Access Considerations section located on Page 8.

NOTICE: Make sure both union connections to the pump are securely tightened.

Before installation, ensure proper access to the final connections.

NOTICE: Provide unrestricted service access to the pump. An access panel must be constructed to allow for sufficient clearance for servicing the pump or controls. The access panel must be located at the pump end of the whirlpool.
