D. Installation Methods:On-Wall or In-Wall
When installing the ION model, you may choose from one of two installation options.
1. On-Wall Installation:
The ION can hang on a sheet rock/combustible wall
2. In-Wall Installation:
The ION can be partially recessed into a wall using the In-Wall Tub Assembly
The On-Wall installation is the most common and least difficult method. On-Wall installation information is located in Sec-
tions 3, 6, and 10. In-Wall installation information is isolated in Section 11. Section 11 will discuss preparation, clearances
and finishing specific to the In-Wall method. Consult the table of contents for topics common to both methods, such as vent
configurations, gas and electrical information.
