1. Install tub waste/overflow according to instructions included with the provided kits. The Gel Coat Series
requires the installation of a door drain with check valve. The check valve and tubing must be installed
horizontal to the floor. Some installations will require the purchase of additional fittings.
2. American Standard Faucet Installation # 9FHS-CH
• Review the installation instructions packed with the faucet set.
• Mask off the tub's deck with a protective tape.
• Locate and mark the center line of the overflow fitting
• Locate and mark 1-1/2" line either side of the tub's center line to establish the overflow clearance.
• Follow the drill template and faucet installation instructions.
3. Other Faucet Model and / or Brand
• Review the installation instructions packed with the faucet set.
• Mask off the tub's deck with a protective tape.
• Locate and mark the center line of the overflow fitting
• Locate and mark 1-1/2" line either side of the tub's center line to establish the overflow clearance.
• Verify the first two component mounting clearance on either side of the waste overflow as well as
above and below the tub's deck.
• Verify the remaining component mounting clearance on both sides of the overflow as well as above
and below the tub's deck.
• It is recommended the hand held shower be installed on the corner closest to the wall to prevent water
from leaking off the deck and on to the floor.
4. Install the optional in-line water heater per manufacturer's instructions.
5. Standard Walk-In Bath Installation — After framing is complete, set product in place to check fit and make
certain that the tub can be properly leveled. (Caution: If the bathtub is not resting on all leveling feet, water
will not drain properly and this may cause the door to leak). Secure tub frame to the studs using metal
straps. (Not provided.)
5a. Fire-Rated Drywall — If fire-rated drywall is specified, the finished fire-rated wall must be in place before
the tub is installed. The dimensions of the framing structure must be increased by the thickness of firerated
drywall.
