cient service access. The recommended minimum dimensions al-
lowable for service to the bath are shown in the "Service Access"
illustration.
Provide adequate area around unit for air circulation for cooling

Service Access with Skirt
An optional skirt fits along the side of the bath for above-floor in-
stallations and is also an access panel for servicing. Allow a space of
at least 8 inches away from the bath for skirt removal.
The skirt is designed to accommodate the added height of the tile,
linoleum, or other floor coverings up to 1-1/4 inches above the floor,
and will be flush with the floor when installed.
More detailed instructions on skirt installation are provided with
the optional skirt assembly.

SERVICE ACCESS
In some cases, access may not have been provided because of
the design of the bath environment and having full understanding that
in this case, it may be necessary to remove the unit for service.
If this is the case, diagnosing a problem may not be possible with-
out complete access to the plumbing system. This would necessitate
the removal of the unit. Although this practice is not commonly imple-
mented, it is an acceptable method.
In some cases access may have been provided in Area A but
service is required in Area B which requires the unit to be pulled for
service and reinstalled.
If service access has not been provided, it is the home owners
responsibility to remove the bath and provide the required ac-
cess, should a repair become necessary.
