6. If any leaks or operating problems are discovered, do not complete installation until prob- lems are resolved. MTI will not be responsible for any costs involved with removing or reinstalling the tub, or for the costs of any surrounding materials. - Page 6 The tub must be leveled by the rim, and supported by the bedding (or MTI foam base) under the full length of the tub bottom. It is recommended to use a plastic sheet barrier on top of and underneath the bedding compound. Carefully lower tub into place. Shift tub side to side to settle into compound.
- Page 7 2. Drill a minimum of three holes on each side of the tub flange to align with selected wall studs. Place enough bedding compound (MTI recommends Quickrete Sand Mix) to fill void between the bottom of the tub and floor. If your tub was ordered with the pre-leveled foam option, no bedding compound is necessary.
- Page 8 2. A pre-leveled foam base comes standard on all MTI air baths and is optional for soaker and whirlpools tubs. Pre-leveled foam base negates the need to wet bed on a flat and level surface. Check the sub- floor and tub for level before installing.
