Installation Instructions for Tubs with Integral Overflow

Install the metal drain/waste
1
fitting (supplied with the tub)
into the drain hole as illustrated
(Fig 2). Ensure that the drain
opening on the waste fitting is
situated in the integral overflow
channel (Fig. 2).
Use clear silicone to adhere the
2
bottom gasket to the underside
of the integral overflow channel.
Secure the waste fitting with
3
the supplied waste fitting nut.
Apply thread sealant to the
threads prior to inserting the
nut. Overtightening the nut
may cause shell damage.
Ensure the drain opening on the waste fitting is not exposed after tightening of the nut.
Install a PVC thread adaptor (not supplied) to the metal waste fitting. This is to provide a PVC to PVC drain adapter
4
connection protruding from the floor. Water test fitting for leaks before installation. NOTE: Use PVC Cement per ASTM D2564
on all PVC joints.

Installation Instructions for 1-Piece Tub

Set the tub in its place and position precisely with respect to
1
the drain-overflow location. Verify where the indentation for
the drain is in relation to the drain-overflow. Use a marker to
outline the perimeter of the entire tub directly on the floor
(Fig. 3).
Mark a trough for the overflow drain location on the floor.
2
The drain/overflow extends below the bottom of the bath.
The drain/overflow requires a cutout of the floor
for providing space to accommodate the extension. Do not
exceed the dimensions of the tub perimeter. When the
above locations have been marked on the floor, remove the
tub, set it aside and continue with the installation process.
Prepare the drain/overflow trough according to the
3
dimensions shown in the Technical Specifications section.
The depth of the trough depends on the vertical extension
of the drain elbow at the bottom of the plumbing below
the floor level. Install the drain/overflow according to the
manufacturer's instructions. Refer also to the Technical
Specifications section.
Watertight installation of the drain is the installer's
responsibility. Drain leakage is excluded from the Jacuzzi
Luxury Bath warranty of this product.
Before the tub may be secured to the floor, the following
4
steps must be completed: Place the tub on the floor in
relation to the drain/overflow. Place the tub on the floor and
line up with the markings previously made on the floor.
Floor-mounted or wall-mounted faucetry can be used exterior
to the bath, this can be installed after the bath is installed into
the floor.
5
Clean up debris left over from the construction steps taken thus far. Also, remove the perimeter outline of the template on
the floor. Use silicone to attach tub to the sub floor. Make sure the tub is properly oriented according to the drain/overflow
end.
A bead of silicone sealant should be applied around the bottom of the tub. Carefully place the tub on the floor in the correct
position and press to the floor. Place weights around the perimeter and allow the adhesive to cure before proceeding.
