Installation Caution - Check ceiling strength If the bath is being installed on a suspended wooden floor or non-ground floor level, make suitable provision to strengthen the floor. A structural engineer may be required to conduct a risk assessment. Do not assume the floor is strong enough without making a suitable assessment. Protective film removed around openings Peel back the protective coating around the unfitted openings, where applicable. - Page 6 Installation View of underside of bath Drain hole Waste Selection: Refer to the installation supplied with the waste parts (where applicable). Double Skin/Integrated Overflow: The overflow system will be built into the double skin of the bath. You will need to purchase a suitable trap and flexible tube to connect the the waste collection pipe. Single Skin/External Overflow: You will need to install a waste and overflow to these baths which will mean elevating high enough to reach underneath.
- Page 7 Installation Minimum 5mm Heritage Bathrooms Acrylic and Cast Iron Skirted Baths come with the feet already installed. To get a totally level bath which is required later in the installation, the feet will need to be adjusted. To do this use a spirit level on the sides of the bath and use the adjusters on the feet (A-B) to make the bath level.
- Page 8 Installation (Based on a wooden or suspended floor) NOTE: IF your floor is concrete, please refer to the opposite page Waste trapdoor or hole The use of a flexible 40mm waste pipe may be needed once a suitable bath waste trap is fitted. Beware, the underside of this type of bath is limited for space and the way pipework can be laid out.
- Page 9 Installation (Based on a concrete floor) Concrete channel for 40mm waste pipe Channelling will be required for a concrete floor. The only way to avoid this is to build a suspended floor. Connect the bath waste trap to the 40mm channeled pipe using a flexible 40mm waste pipe. Inspect all joints for leaktightness make sound where necessary Flow...
- Page 10 Installation Use a suitable bonding agent (not supplied) and apply to the strengthening bars on the underside of the bath. This will stick the bath to the floor. Caution must be used to make sure the waste is leaktight at this stage.
- Page 11 Caring for your bath For everyday cleaning we recommend using a soft damp cloth or just warm soapy water. You should never use abrasive cleaners on you bath, they will scratch the surface of the acrylic, which will affect the appearance of the glossy look. If you do scratch your bath, we recommend using an enamel cleaning agent or car polish (T-Cut) this will help to restore your bath back to a lustre finish.
