Comfort Pure Air™ Bath
Framing and Support (Cont)
•
Ensure the rim will rest on a level surface.
•
Per code, access must be provided to the blower
for your specific model. Primary and secondary service
access locations are shown in the rough-in diagrams
contained in the Technical Specifications section.
It is the responsibility of the installer, building
contractor, or owner to provide access for service.
Jacuzzi is not responsible for any costs relating to
obtaining access for repair. The owner shall bear such
costs and, if appropriate, must seek recovery from the
installer.
•
Provide adequate ventilation for cooling and supply
sufficient air for the blower. Do not insulate
around the equipment.
•
Your bathtub may have blower parts that extend
beyond the rim of the bathtub. Refer to the rough-in
diagrams included in the warranty pack and
construction framing to correctly accommodate.
Subfloor
Prepare the subfloor for the drain and ensure that the area is level.
The drain/overflow of the bathtub extends below the bottom of the bathtub. Identify the drawing in the Technical
1
Specifications section that corresponds with your bathtub.
Make appropriate cuts to the subfloor to accommodate the drain.
2
Jacuzzi's Tru-Level™ base is a standard feature on all bathtubs. If the subfloor is level and a continuous surface,
3
no other preparation is necessary.
If the subfloor is not level, you must level the entire surface prior to installing the bathtub. The materials used
4
will insure that the bathtub is supported from the bottom. These materials include: leveling compound, mortar,
plaster or minimal expansion structural foam (having a density of a minimum 5lbs/cubic foot). The bathtub must
remain level in order for it to drain properly and must make contact with the leveling material. Both sides of a joint
or splice of subfloor should be level to each other.
Electrical Connections
Risk of electric shock. Connect only to a circuit protected by a GFCI.
When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be followed:
•
Always follow local building and electrical codes.
•
Grounding is required. The unit should be installed and grounded by a qualified electrician.
A dedicated, 120VAC, 15 Amp GFCI-protected circuit is required for the blower.
Risk of component overheat. Do not use electric extension cord to power this unit.
