Use and Care Manual

CONSTRUCTION - The tub surface is made of marine grade
acrylic. The substructure is a composite laminate constructed of
fire retardant fillers.
ELECTRICAL - Factory wired for 110 Volt 20 Amps. Ground-Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is required. The 20 Amp GFCI breaker
must not supply any other circuits or devices. If and electric heater
is equipped an additional dedicated 15 amp breaker is required.
An access panel must be installed to permit pump service.
The unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that is
protected by a Ground-Fault Circut Interrupter (GFCI). Such a
GFCI should be provided by the installer and should be tested on
a routine basis. To test the GFCI push the test button. The GFCI
should interrupt power. Push the reset button. The power should
be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, there is
a ground current flowing indicating the possibility of an electrical
shock. (See schematic on Pg. 5)
ELECTRICAL ROUGH-IN (WARNING) When using electrical
products basic precautions should always be followed including
the following: Rough-in wiring to equipment on a Ground-Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). The GFCI circuit breaker must not
supply any other devices or circuits. Please note that depending
on the therapy type of your tub, you could have multiple electrical
plugs located under the skirt. Please ensure all cords are
accounted for before setting the tub in place for final installation.
An access panel must be installed to permit pump service.
WARNING: Failure to follow instructions exposes users to risk of
electrical shock or fire.
PLUMBING ROUGH-IN - The bath waste pipe protrudes below
the base approximately one inch. Provide supply pipe, rough-in
waste and vent per local code.
BATH WASTE AND OVERFLOW - Read instructions enclosed
with bath waste drain for proper setting and fitting. Water tight
installation of the drain is the installer’s responsibility. The waste
and overflow is not included with the tubs unless purchased as
an option. if not purchased with the tub, you must supply and
install an alternative.
TESTING - Inspecting the unit prior to installation is the respon
-
sibility of the installer or building contractor who acts on behalf
of the user. They are responsible for ensuring the unit is free of
defect or damage. In the event of a problem, the unit must not
be installed. ANZZI is not responsible for failures or damage that
could have been discovered, repaired, or avoided by proper in
-
spection and testing prior to installation.
PROTECTION OF TUB - Use a section of the box, cut to size,
and place in the bottom of the tub. When possible, keep the box
cover over the tub. These steps will help protect the tub from
abrasion or damage during installation.
IMPORTANT: If installing a skirt with removable panel, read in
-
structions for the skirt prior to rough-in. The instructions are lo-
cated in the box with the skirt.
SETTING TUB IN PLACE -
The bath waste opening protrudes
below the base approximately one inch. You may be required to
cut a hole in the subfloor to accommodate bath waste. In slab
on grade or prestressed concrete floors where cutting is not de-
sired, the tub may be raised up by building the platform higher
and using extra mortar under the tub. If a joist must be notched,
verify that structure will not be weakened. Remove only what
is necessary. Provide supply pipe, rough-in waste and vent per
code.
PLUMBING - PVC Schedule 40 piping, self draining pump and
fittings come completely preplumbed unless requested other-
wise. The pump and whirlpool system are completely contained
within the tub perimeter. On some models, the pump may ex-
ceed beyond the perimeter of the tub. If you have such a model,
please make allowances during installation.
ELECTRICAL - Factory wired for 110 Volt 20 Amps. Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is required. The GFCI breaker
must not supply any other circuits or devices.
FINISHING - Before finishing with your choice of material, make
sure access entries are available to the pump, bath waste, and
plumbing fixtures. Finish as desired and seal around tub, prefer-
ably with silicone.
NOTE:
1. For Caulking, we recommend 100% sanitary silicone rather
than latex.
2. For quieter operation, you may choose to insulate the
construction area.
3. IT IS THE INSTALLERS RESPONSIBILITY TO SUPPLY
ACCESS TO PUMP AND EQUIPMENT
REMINDER: During construction, we suggest that you cover
tub to avoid use as trash receptacle
NOTE: To service the pump, blower and other electrical compo-
nents the caulking must be removed. Afterwards the skirt should
be cleaned and caulking reapplied.
MAINTENANCE - For any maintenance or repair the shell can
be removed by flipping the tub over, locating and removing the
4 plastic nubs and loosening the securing screws underneath.
Then the entire shell can easily be removed.
If the tub is fully installed, but must be uninstalled for mainte
-
nance or repair, the caulking must be removed completely; and
the tub must be cleaned and new caulking is to be applied for
reinstallation.
