INSTALL CEMENT BOARD
Install cement board to the walls according to
established installation methods. The cement
board must cover the entire wall surface from
ceiling to subfloor. Provide a cutĆout area around
the mounting frame.
Mark the cement board for the suction fitting hole
by first measuring up at least 2Ć1/2Ćinches from
the footbath basin material. Add the thickness of
the finished floor material you plan to use, and
draw a pencil mark at that location. Make sure the
wall is perfectly flat and smooth within a 5Ćinch

mark. Use a hole saw to drill a 3Ć1/4Ćinch hole in
the cement board at the pencil mark.
Carefully cut holes for the water supplies, suction,
drain and drain overflow, as well as any lighting
fixtures or other required accessories.
