which had already existed before

bathroom fixtures in terms of 
the application of national safety 
regulations, e.g. water supply/
discharge.

  When planning and building the

protect the bathtub surface and 
casing and the wall and floor tiles 
from damage.
GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
  Avoid excessive debris of any kind 
and, in particular, debris which

account an adequate slope to 
the drain and check the proper fit 
of pipe connections.
  Upon completed installation and 
connection of the bathtub to the 
plumbing system, a drainage test 
shall be made to check whether 
the residual water is drained 
completely.
  After completed installation, 
these installation instructions 
shall be handed over to the 
owner or to the supervisor or ar-
chitect acting as an agent.
  The plumbing contractor or the 
owner of the bathtub shall make 
these installation instructions and

subsequent owners and users.
