Model - American Standard Green Tea Whirlpool and Bath Tubs 3572 Installation Manual

INSTALLATION AND FRAMING INSTRUCTIONS:
The variety of installations possible for this air massage system may require framing procedures
other than those shown. Locate studs as required. Ensure roughing-in dimensions are proper,
plumb and square. Provisions must be made in all installations for an access opening for servicing
the air blower and controls. It is strongly recommended that an additional opening be provided for
access to the drain components. The apron should not be used as the primary access opening.
1. Position the air massage system into the installation opening and level the deck in both
directions, shimming the integral feet with attached baseboard as necessary. Refer to the Air
Bath Installation Table for nominal installation dimensions. Mark the final position of the
underside of the deck by tracing a line on to the studs (see Figure 1).
. Remove the air massage system and attach a 1 x 4 stringer to the studs, with the top of the
stringer touching the traced line.
The rim of the bath must not support weight.
!
3. Install supplied cable drain components to the air massage system according to the enclosed drain installation
instructions. Before replacing your air bath for final installation, be certain that an opening has been provided in
the sub-floor for the drain. See the roughing-in drawing for suggested opening size (shadowed) and location
dimensions. The drain/overflow of the bath extends below the bottom of the bath. Note that this requires a cutout
in the floor.
4. Replace air massage system and re-shim the integral support feet with attached baseboard, shimming the entire
length of the baseboard as needed. Secure the shims using construction adhesive, silicone or equivalent
materials.
The rim of the bath must not support weight. Any finish material such as tile or wall board must be
!
self-supporting if it contacts the deck of the bath.
