10. Complete the Finished Wall/Deck

- If you have not already done so, carefully remove the protective tape from the whirlpool rim.
- Cover the framing with water-resistant wall/deck material. Seal the joints between the whirlpool rim edge and
the water-resistant wall/deck material with silicone sealant.
- Tape and mud the water-resistant wall/deck material. Install the finished wall/deck to the water-resistant
wall/deck material. Seal the joints between the whirlpool rim and the finished wall/deck material with silicone
sealant.
- Install the faucet trim according to the instructions packed with the trim.

11. Complete the Concrete Installation

- If you have not already done so, carefully remove the protective tape from the whirlpool rim.
- Apply mortar and tile to the wall and surround material as needed.
- Apply a bead of sealant where the tile meets the whirlpool surface.
- Install the faucet trim according to the instructions packed with the trim.

12. Clean-Up After Installation

- When cleaning up after installation, do not use abrasive cleansers, as they may scratch and dull the whirlpool
surface. If necessary, use warm water and a liquid detergent to clean the surface of the whirlpool, user keypad
and remote control.
- Remove stubborn stains, paint, or tar with turpentine or paint thinner. Do not allow cleaners containing
petroleum distillates to remain in contact with any whirlpool surfaces for long periods of time. Remove plaster
by carefully scraping with a wood edge. Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, or other metal tools. Use a
powder-type detergent on a damp cloth to provide mild abrasive action to any residual plaster.
