D. PLUMBING PREPARATION

dimensions. Cap the supplies, and check for leaks.
6. BEFORE INSTALLING UNIT
A. TILING-IN BEAD INSTALLATION
An optional tiling-in bead is recommended for the side of
the whirlpool that contacts the wall. This bead prevents
water from seeping between the whirlpool and the wall.
Refer to Ordering Information located in the Roughing-In
section on Page 4.
Install this bead now. Refer to the installation instructions
packed with the tiling-in bead.
B. PARTIALLY INSTALL BATH DRAIN
Install the whirlpool drain according to the drain
manufacturer's instructions. Do not connect the trap at
this time.
C. PROTECT WHIRLPOOL UNIT
Position a drop cloth or similar material in the bottom of
the unit. Be careful not to scratch the surface of the
product.
7. INSTALL THE WHIRLPOOL
A. WHIRLPOOL SET-IN
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not use
the piping or pump for structural support or
positioning.
Option For Corner or Recessed Installation: Slide
the new whirlpool into position. Insert the drain tailpiece
into the trap. Level the whirlpool by placing metal shims
under the whirlpool feet, as needed. The whirlpool must
be level and resting on all four feet. Check for level along
the top and the end of the whirlpool, and across the drain
side. The whirlpool may need to be moved in and out of
the recess until it is shimmed properly if the feet are not
accessible from the back or side.
