4. Mark & Pre-Drill Hole Locations 
· Mark stud locations.
· Pre-drill Ø5 mm holes on top flange.
· If stud is not flush to flange, a shim should be 
used. This will fix any gaps to prevent cracking 
the flange.
5. Screw Into Place
· Lay mortar bed and carefully lower bathtub into 
predetermined location.
· Secure tub by screwing flange into the pre-drilled 
holes from step 4.
· Place drop cloth in bathtub and stand inside bathtub 
to press it into floor when securing to wall studs.

plumber’s putty to seal between drain and 
bathtub.
