4. Secure the Bath to the Subfloor – Models With Bath Base Only
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not support the bath by the rim.
Choose the installation option that best applies to your particular installation.
If the subfloor is not level, shim the bath support blocks as necessary.
Secure Using Cement or Mortar Bed Option
Spread a 2" (5.1 cm) thick layer of cement or mortar on the subfloor where the bath will be placed.
This will help secure, level and support the bath.
NOTE: Do not use gypsum cement or drywall compound for this application, as they will not provide an
acceptable, durable bond.
Position a piece of plastic drop cloth or similar material over the cement or mortar bed.
With help, carefully lift the bath into place.
Verify that the bath is level.
Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap.
NOTE: An access panel will simplify future maintenance.

With help, carefully lift the bath into place.
Verify that the bath is level.
Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap.
