VERSA
NBWI-6456
WASTE AND OVERFLOW ROUGH-IN
Nella freestanding bathtubs do not use cable or trip lever
systems to operate the drain stopper. Each bath tub uses
a simple pop-up drain which is activated by applying pres-
sure and pushing down on the drain.
Each bathtub has an internal overflow channel built
INSIDE the wall of the bathtub. There is no drain shoe.
1. Remove the bathtub from the box.
2. Place bathtub in desired location on bathroom.
Attention should be given to bathtub placement to
ensure the bathtub drain and plumbing are note
located directly above floor joists.
3. Once the desired location has been verified and con-
firmed – set the bathtub in place.
Using a pencil or non-permanent marker trace the
bottom of the bathtub length and width, marking
the outline of the tub.
4. With the tub still in place mark the location and
center-point of the drain outlet.
5. Be sure the bathtub rests on the finished floor in
a level position.
**IMPORTANT** -
Water will only drain properly to
the waste outlet if the bathtub is level.
**If installing a Nella ™ acrylic bathtub use the provid-ed
self-leveling feet (not applicable to NellaMar™
solid cultured stone products) and confirm that the bath
rests level on the finished floor.
6. Place bathtub on a soft, cloth blanket or other protective
material. Rest tub on its side to allow for drain and overflow
assembly.
7. Create an opening in the finished floor with ample space
to accomodate a P-trap assembly or flex-hose assembly.
**IMPORTANT** -
Depending on the building codes and
requirements in your region the required installation method
will vary.
