Tools and Materials

Before You Begin

CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Do not support the bath by the rim. The bath must be
supported by the leveling blocks only.
NOTICE: This bath requires the following accessories: K-175 media module, K-176 digital interface, and
K-7273 drain. It is important that all of these required accessories be at the installation site before
beginning this installation.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Carefully plan moving the bath into the installation area. This bath will not easily fit through
doorways.
When planning the installation area, provide access to all final plumbing connections for servicing.
To ensure a successful installation, the floor must be level.
Adequate floor support must be provided. Consult the roughing-in sheet packed with the bath for
specific floor loading requirements.
This bath must be installed as a drop-in or raised-deck installation within an island.
Provide properly dimensioned framing.
The basin area requires no additional support when the subfloor is level and square with the stud
framing. Consider using shims for additional support if the subfloor is uneven.
Do not select a rim-mount faucet for this bath. Instead, select a deck-mount or wall-mount faucet.
Plan for adequate mounting and connection space for the faucet.
Verify adequate support for the faucet. Large deck-mount faucets are not appropriate or safe for this
installation as they may be inadvertently used as a means of support.
This bath conforms to ANSI standard Z124.1.2. All dimensions are nominal.
