INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
THANK YOU...
for selecting an American Standard bath. Your new bath is shipped to
you after careful inspection. the whirlpool version is completely
assembled with pump, motor, and system piping. All you need to finish
the installation are your selected fittings and electrical connections for
a whirlpool. To insure maximum performance and pleasure from this
product, please follow the instructions and cautions.
General Installation Information
Carefully uncrate and inspect your new bath for any shipping damage.
If such damage is found, report it to your vendor immediately. After
inspection and during installation, protect the bath from construction
damage. Before installation, and before enclosing with wallboard,
tile, etc., water test the unit and check for leaks. Do not make
modifications to the whirlpool system or remove pump from factory
mounting. This could adversely affect the safety and performance of
the whirlpool and void the warranty. Do not handle or move the
whirlpool by the pump, motor, or piping system. Fittings (bath filler,
shower arm, etc.) are not provided with the bath and must be ordered
separately. Framing and enclosing materials are provided by others.
