Important Notes
1. Never lift a whirlpool bathtub by the pipes! By doing this you can cause severe
damage to the whirlpool system. Always lift the unit by the frame to avoid the risk
of any damage to the unit or the whirlpool system.
2. Before installation cover all of the jets and suction to minimize the chance of
debris falling into them and creating a blockage.
3. Cover the door drain located at the bottom of the door opening with tape to
avoid blocking it with debris.
4. Never use the door as a handle for lifting, or a seat during installation.
5. be sure to cover the acrylic surface while setting tile and/or painting to avoid
damaging the high gloss finish.
6. Do not dry wipe the unit during the cleaning process, always vacuum the tub out
prior to using mild soap and water and a fresh soft cloth to clean.
7. *It is mandatory that the floor be properly supported prior to use.
Mortar mix is recommended. Any floor that has not been properly
supported will not be covered under the manufactures structural
warranty as implied.

compressed air before filling and testing after the installation has been
completed!
