Before You Begin

Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Unpack and inspect the apron for damage. Return the apron to the carton until you are ready to
install it.
The apron must be installed before the finished floor and wall materials are installed.
This apron system is designed to have the finished wall materials [1-1/2" (3.8cm) max. thickness] go
over the apron columns. It is also designed to have the finished floor materials [2" (5.1cm) max.
thickness] butt up against the channel.
The apron can be used as an access to the whirlpool pump and controls, when applicable. However,
additional access may make servicing of the pump and controls easier.
NOTE: Before installing the apron, fill the bath with water and check the drain system for leaks. If
applicable, test the whirlpool system for leaks and proper operation.
1. Install the Bath/Whirlpool
Install the bath/whirlpool according to the instructions packed with the product.
Make sure 2x4 studs are located at the front corners of the bath/whirlpool. These will be required
when installing the apron.
