Diagrama de instalación
AVISO: Todas las dimensiones son nominales. La tolerancia para la abertura entre los
postes es de +1/8" (3 mm)/-0. Mida con cuidado el producto antes de determinar las
dimensiones del encajonado. Quizás sea necesario colocar cuñas entre la estructura de
postes de madera y la unidad. Si se requiere una pared resistente al fuego, las
dimensiones del diagrama de instalación deberán aumentar según el grosor del
material resistente al fuego. Las dimensiones de abertura entre los postes se deben
medir por el lado expuesto del material de la pared. Las dimensiones del diagrama
de instalación son cruciales para una correcta instalación. Construya la estructura y
coloque las tuberías con precisión.
En caso de instalar una puerta de ducha con esta bañera, consulte las instrucciones de
instalación del fabricante de la puerta para cualquier consideración especial de la
estructura de postes de madera.

Construct the Framing
WARNING: Risk of property damage. The bath must be supported by the
subfloor. The wall surrounds are not designed to hold the bath in place and are
not intended to be load bearing. The support clips must be used to prevent the
bath from lateral movement.
Framing Provisions
WARNING: Risk of property damage. The bath must be supported by the
subfloor. The wall surrounds are not designed to hold the bath in place and are
not intended to be load bearing. The support clips or screws must be used to
prevent the bath from lateral movement.
Install a level subfloor. Allow clearance for drainage through the floor joists or
slab and to allow convenient plumbing installation.
For shower door installations: Refer to the shower door manufacturer's
instructions for any special framing considerations. It may be appropriate to add
studs for pivot shower door support.
Studs must be positioned roughly as shown in the "Roughing-In" section to
properly fasten the support clips. Other stud locations are optional except for
those which must meet the load-bearing requirements of local building codes.
Studs must also allow for the installation of plumbing fittings and a shower door,
if one will be installed. Locate the shower door studs as required by the shower
door manufacturer.
For Baths with Apron Flanges
Ensure that the apron flanges can be secured to the studs. If this is not possible,
install three 2x4 blocks just behind the apron location.
For Baths without Wall Surrounds
Provide the necessary backing or support between the studs for shelving, grab
bars, towel bars or other accessories. Refer to the accessory manufacturer's
instructions for proper installation.
For Baths with Wall Surrounds
For installation to masonry walls: Make provisions for plumbing connections. For
the plumbing end wall, construct a separate frame wall a minimum of 6" (15.2 cm)
from the masonry wall. For the remaining walls, use 2x2 furring strips to provide
stud locations.
Ensure that the outer stud is positioned with the vertical wall flanges 30" (76.2 cm)
from the back wall. The outer edge of the stud should align with the edge of the
wall flange.
