Signature Heardware Copper Tub Installation And Care Manual

COPPER TUB
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND CARE GUIDE
Before you begin, read the following rough-in, installation and care instructions. Observe all local plumbing and building
codes. Install your tub on an adequately supported and level finished floor.
Unpack and inspect your tub for damages. If any damage is found, contact Customer Service at 1-866-855-2284 and
return the tub to the packing crate. If you need assistance while installing your new copper tub, call Customer Service.
We recommend consulting a professional if you are unfamiliar with installing bathroom fixtures and plumbing. Keep the
plumbing connections around the tub easily accessible for any future maintenance that may be necessary. Measure
doorways and other entry points to ensure the tub will fit into the desired installation area. Signature Hardware accepts
no liability for any damage to the floor, walls, plumbing, or for personal injury during installation.

ROUGH-IN

The type of drain and connection method used will vary depending on your plumbing access. Determine the type of
connection (drain tailpipe, hub adapter, or waste and overflow) taking into account the height and material of the finished
floor.
We highly recommend performing any rough-in procedures with the tub on site. For on-site rough-in information, go to
the appropriate Drain Installation section. For determining drain rough-in without the tub present, continue to Steps 1 and
2 before proceeding to drain installation.
Refer to the tub's PDF Specifications sheet. (This can be viewed/printed from the website.)
1. Determine the desired location and orientation of the tub and mark the location on the floor using the length and
width dimensions provided in the PDF Specifications.
2. If the tub will have a drain only (no waste and overflow), use a tape measure and straightedge to mark the centerline
of the drain location on the floor. Use the dimensions provided in the PDF Specifications as a guideline. If the tub
will have waste and overflow, use a tape measure and straightedge to mark a spot on floor 1" beyond the tub rim at
the centerline of the side of the tub. Again use the dimensions provided in the PDF Specifications as a guideline.
