TYPICAL FREESTANDING BATHTUB INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Before you start:
• Ensure that the floor is even.
• The wate-overflow fitting is supplied with the product, however other accessories like the slip joint and
adaptors are not included and must be purchased separately.
• Because of the technical features of the product, it should be used only with the supplied waste-overflow
or specific 3rd party models that have been tested and approved by us.
• Place the bathtub by raising it up 4” with 4x4 pieces of lumber so you can have access from the bottom
of the bathtub.
• The bath must rest on its feet, not the monobloc sides. The feet must be adjusted to compensate for any
floor imperfections and leave minimal gap with floor.
INSTALLATION SEQUENCE
• The Arabella bathtub is equipped with factory pre-installed overflow system.
• The waste pipe/p-trap connection must be made directly to the waste/drain outlet located at the bottom of the tub.
• Picture 1-2: the bathtub is leveled via a water level at the intended local installation area.
• Picture 3: place the bathtub by raising it up 4” with 4x4 peices of lumber so you can have access from the bottom of
the bathtub. Important note: during the installation, the bathtub should not be turned on its side to prevent its weight
from deflecting its monobloc sides. This is why it is important to use supports to raise the bathtub above the floor.
This will also provide you with easy access to the internal plumbing parts.

• Picture 6: silicone is applied to the feet of the bathtub that stands on the floor.
• Picture 7: when the installation is completed, the bathtub is taken down from
the supports ( ie 2 x 4x4's).
If necessary, installation is completed by applying silicone at several points
between the bottom panel and floor

The smooth surface of your Aquatica® Aquastone™

maintained by simply cleaning with a soft cloth,
using a mild detergent in water, then wiping over
with a dry cloth.

will cause damage to the surface. Damage caused
by use of these products, or any other
inappropriate treatment, is not covered by our
guarantee.
Инструкция по уходу
Поверхность легко чистится. За счет гладкости
грязь к ней не прилипает. Для регулярного
ухода используйте мягкую ткань, мыльный
раствор и воду. После чистки вытирайте
поверхность сухой тканью, которая хорошо
впитывает влагу.
Не используйте губки с абразивной
поверхностью и агрессивные растворители,
которые могут повредить ванну.
Повреждения, возникшие вследствие
неправильного ухода, не покрываются
гарантией.
