Concrete Construction
NOTICE: Adequate floor support must be provided. Consult the roughing-in sheet packed with your
whirlpool for specific floor loading requirements.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not support the whirlpool by the rim.
Make sure the flooring offers adequate support for your whirlpool, and verify that the subfloor is
flat and level.
This whirlpool may be installed next to the wall or in an island installation. An island installation
requires a four side surround. In both instances, make sure the deck is supported by brick or
concrete.
Install an access panel to allow the pump to be serviced.
Construct brick or concrete supports.
Provide a 1/16" (2 mm) gap between the whirlpool rim and the concrete or brick framing. Frame
the floor, or construct a frame for a raised installation, in accordance with the roughing-in
information packed with the whirlpool.
Position the plumbing according to the roughing-in information packed. Cap the supplies, and
check for leaks.
