Alcove Installations
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not lift or move the bath by the apron or apron braces.
Verify that the apron braces are attached before installing the bath, then lift the bath by the rim at
multiple points.
NOTE: 6' (1.8 m) bath models require construction of an apron for alcove installations.
Verify that the bath is level.
With the apron braces attached, lift the bath into position. Position the bath so the outside edge is
flush with the framing.
Drop-In Installations (not shown)
With the drain and overflow assembly attached to the bath, lift the bath in the recess or island.
Verify that the bath is level and there is a 1/16" (2 mm) gap between the rough deck or island and
bath rim.
NOTE: To adjust for level: Remove the bath. Place shims under the bath feet. Position the bath in the
recess or island and recheck for level. Repeat until the bath is level.
