The compound used MUST make contact with the entire bottom surface of the base. Both sides of a joint or splice of subfloor should be level to each other. Level and support waste pipe cutout area greater than 5" x 5". The base is NOT to be supported by the tile flange. 5 Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath© BY82000 03/05 BASE INSTALLATION STEP 4 Before installing the base, make sure the 4 water supply hoses are routed to seat area. If you have a with Air unit also route the air supply hose to the seat area. If you have a with Air unit also pull the 2 flow switch cables and the control panel cable through base at this time. With the drain fitting passing over the center of the drainpipe, lower the shower base carefully into place, push down firmly until the base is in place. You must check the level of the base in two directions. Do not lift a corner of the shower base to level the base. This will cause a loss of contact with the mortar and void your warranty. Attach the shower base flange to the stud wall and blocking with self-drilling screws (included). Use a minimum of 3 screws per flange section. POSITION BASE OVER CENTER OF DRAIN PIPE AND SET INTO PLACE * ONLY WITH AIR TOWER UNITS CONTROL PANEL CABLE* FLOW SWITCH CABLE* (2X) NOTE: If there is any gap between base flange and stud or blocking, shims MUST be used to prevent distortion or cracking of the flange. See Shim Instructions. SHIM INSTRUCTIONS GAP TILE FLANGE INCORRECT SHIM STUD CORRECT TILE FLANGE STUD USE SCREWS (PROVIDED) USE SCREWS (PROVIDED) STEP 5 Before installing the seat frame, apply silicone sealant around mating flange on base. Lower seat frame onto flange and base. Attach the seat frame flange to the stud wall and blocking with self-drilling screws (included). Use a minimum of 3 screws per flange section. Clean up any excess sealant. LOWER SEAT FRAME OVER FLANGE ON BASE APPLY SEALANT ON FLANGE BLOCKING SEAT FRAME NOTE: If there is any gap between seat frame flange and stud or blocking, shims MUST be used to pre- vent distortion or cracking of the flange. See Shim Instructions. STEP 6 With a large screwdriver and the tool included with the drain, tighten the inside compression nut to seal the drain pipe connection. After drain is fully installed, test for proper drainage. If the shower base does not drain properly, rectify this condition before proceeding with the installation. Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath© is not responsible for removal and/ or reinstallation costs. TIGHTEN SEALING NUT TOOL (INCLUDED) NOTE: Watertight installation of the drain is the installer’s responsibility. Drain leakage is excluded from the Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath© warranty. Replace the strainer and tape over the drain hole to prevent finishing material from entering drain. 6 Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath© BY82000 03/05 BASE INSTALLATION STEP 7 Place cement board or equivalent on top of shower base flange and secure to studwall. Apply tile (or other finishing material) leaving a 1/8" gap between the finishing material and the shower base flange lip. Seal this gap with silicone sealant. Leave a minimum 1/4" gap at the back and front corners of the shower base to allow drainage from leakage through unsealed tiled grout. CAULKING TILE CEMENT BOARD TILE ADHESIVE STUD FLANGE SHIM IF NECESSARY TO FILL GAPS BETWEEN STUD AND FLANGE STUD ATTACH WITH SCREWS PROVIDED 1/8" GAP BETWEEN BASE & TILE DO NOT FILL THIS AREA See Shim Instructions on page 6. STEP 8 Filling the area marked DO NOT FILL will prevent moisture from properly draining back into the base through weep holes. This moisture is due to leakage through the tile grout. Sealing the tile grout will reduce or prevent this leakage. TILE CEMENT BOARD GROUT SILICONE SEALANT SHIM IF NECESSARY 1-1/8" MAXIMUM NO MINIMUM STUD DO NOT FILL STEP 9 NOTE: ALLOW 24 HOURS DRYING TIME BEFORE BEGINNING THE TOWER AND DOOR INSTALLATION. CLEAN UP AFTER BASE INSTALLATION To avoid dulling and scratching the acrylic surface of the base, never use abrasive cleaners. A mild liquid detergent and warm water clean soiled surfaces. Remove spilled plaster with a wood or plastic edge. Metal tools scratch the surface. Spots left by plaster or grout can be removed if lightly rubbed with detergent on a damp cloth or sponge. Paint, tar, or other difficult stains can be removed with paint thinner, turpentine, or isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol). Minor scratches which do not penetrate the color finish can be removed by lightly sanding with 600-grit wet/dry sandpaper. You can restore the glossy finish to the acrylic surface of the base with a special compound, Meguiar’s #10 Mirror Glaze. If not available, use automotive rubbing compound followed by an application of automotive paste wax. Major scratches and gouges which penetrate the acrylic surface require refinishing. See your Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath© dealer for special instructions. 7 Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath© BY82000 03/05 TOWERS AND DOORS INSTALLATION THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOR SUMMER RAIN UNITS WITH AND WITHOUT AIR FEATURE O...
