Deck to oor dimensions are measured through the drain hole to give a more consistent measurement. The
dimensions were achieved by laying a straight edge across the deck, the distance was then measured from
the oor at the drain opening to the bottom of the straight edge. (See illustration D). The lip height is then
subtracted to give a more consistent oor to lip height. There may be height dimension variations of plus
minus ¼” from the stated dimension in the table, which is a standard production tolerance.

INSTALLATION PLANNING AND PREPARATION
1. BATH TUBS MUST BE SET IN SETTING COMPOUND. An uneven oor can impede installation.
2. NEVER LIFT THE TUB BY THE PLUMBING. Doing so can result in leaks.
3. Check if the oor is level and of good quality. An uneven oor may impede proper installation of the
product. The oor structure must be capable of supporting a minimum of 100 pounds per square foot.
a. Clean the area of any debris or trash.
b. Use a 5 or 6-foot level to determine if the oor is level. If not, calculate the amount of mortar required to
level the tub.
c. Insure that the drain rough is placed at the proper location.
d. Check if the proper electrical service has been installed near the pump location. See electrical
requirements for specications.
4. If this is a deck installation, measure from the oor to the bottom of the rim to ensure that the tub is not
suspended by its rim.
The entire tub oor must be fully supported.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES:
Installation must comply with local and national codes.
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK! Connect only to a separate circuit protected by a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
Installation must provide access for servicing pump/motor.
1. Install tub waste/ overow tting according to instructions provided.
2. Construct support framing on all sides of the tub, allowing for a 16” X 20” access opening for servicing the
pump/motor on whirlpool models.
3. DECK / PENINSULAR INSTALLATION - Deck surface can be any width. Allow for the thickness of the
wallboard and tile or other surface material between the deck (see “Height to Lip” illustration F & G) and
underside of the tub lip.
4. ALCOVE / CORNER INSTALLATION - Wooden 1” X 4” support stringers must be attached to
surrounding walls at the recommended height. If you use a skirt, refer to the specic skirt installation
instructions provided with that product.
WARNING: Never support the tub by its deck-lip or stringers, as this could result in product failure and
void the Warranty. Level and ll the tub with water and test it for proper operation and drainage or possible
water leaks due to transit-handling damage. Remove the tub from its framing, if it leaks.
5. The tub MUST be supported from the tub bottom and not the tub lip. The lip should only rest on the
nished deck surface or support stringers. A setting compound such as cement or mortar must support
the tub bottom. A sheet of plastic lm, both under and on the top of the compound is recommended as
a barrier. The tub should be set in place (do not handle the whirlpool by the piping) while the compound
is still soft so that the compound will conform to the tub bottom. The tub should be worked down into
the compound until the lip of the tub just barely makes contact with the nished deck surface or support
stringers. It may be necessary to partially ll the tub with water to aid in properly setting the tub.
6. Verify that the product is level by checking the tub deck surface.
7. Place the ll spout and supply lines at the desired location. If you are installing the spout and supply lines
on the deck of the tub, mark the location rst and drill pilot holes from the acrylic side of the product. Use a
properly sized hole saw, and drill the spout and supply line holes from the acrylic side of product
8. Connect the water supply lines and the waste overow.
9. Plug the pump cord into the dedicated 120V/20A GFCI outlet to supply electrical power to the system. The
cord and the plug are shipped with the system.
10. After plumbing and electrical connections have been made the tub should be cleaned of dirt and debris.
Follow “Cleaning and Maintenance” instructions below.
11. When nishing a Corner/Alcove installation, allow for an expansion gap between the wallboard and tub
deck as well as between tile or other material and the tub deck. (See Illustration G)

INSTALLING AN OVAL TUB WITH A TEMPLATE DIAGRAM
Refer to illustration D. The back section of this manual contains oval cut out instructions. Use pencil and tape
measure to plot the coordinates and draw the cut out. Take special care that you do not to drop the tub in the
platform cutout, since the tub may break and the ensuing warranty limitations would become effective. For
additional questions on installing the tub read “installation procedures” above.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Air Baths are equipped with an Automatic Cleaning and Purge Cycle
Air Baths have a pre-programmed cleaning and purge cycle built in to expel the remaining water in the air
channels. It activates within 20 minutes after the Air Bath is turned off and then blows for about 2 to 3
minutes. After the cycle is completed it will shut off automatically. There is nothing to be alarmed about if you
hear a blowing noise coming from the tub after the tub has been turned off. The noise you hear is the cleaning
cycle in operation.
Pump and hose circulation system should be ushed before rst use and on a monthly basis when product is
under normal use. Below are the recommended procedures for cleaning:
• DO NOT RUN WHIRLPOOL DRY. Fill the tub with hot water 2-3 inches above the jets and add 2-3
tablespoons of Lysol™, Pine sol™ or similar detergents.
• Switch on whirlpool and run for 10 minutes.
• Drain tub completely.
• Fill tub with cold water above jets.
• Switch on whirlpool and run for 5 minutes.
• Drain tub completely.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS as they will scratch and dull the surface of the acrylic.
Plaster can be removed using a sharpened wooden stick. DO NOT USE METAL SCRAPERS, WIRE
BRUSHES OR OTHER HARSH ABRASIVE TOOLS. Usually a mild detergent will remove construction
debris. More stubborn debris may be removed with denatured alcohol, or Clorox Soft Scrub® cleaner. Light
scratches and dulled areas may be restored to original luster by rubbing with an automotive type cleaning
compound such as DuPont White Polishing Compound®.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Fill the bath at least to 3 inches above the jets before activating the pump.
2. The air bath blower and/or whirlpool pump is activated by depressing the control panel buttons. Do not
repeatedly depress the switch in rapid order if you do not see the whirlpool function right away, as it may
take a few seconds before you can see it fully operating. Please see air bath control or Total Massage
Control instructions on the following page for operation and features.
3. If any factory-installed ttings are removed; do not operate the unit. A safety hazard may occur.
4. Do not use bubble bath when you operate the whirlpool pump. This might cause excessive foaming.
5. Bath oils may be used; however their frequent use will require more frequent purging and cleaning of the
systems.
6. Both air and whirlpool systems are plumbed in a way that water will drain from the plumbing easily.
7. There are no user serviceable parts located under the tub.
JET OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
The jets are easily adjusted by pointing the jet-nozzle in the desired direction. The
strength of the water ow and air induction can be regulated through twisting the
jet-nozzle. Turning the nozzle clockwise will decrease the water ow and nally
completely turn off the water ow of that particular jet. If the nozzle is turned counter
clockwise then the water ow will increase up to its maximum ow. Only a 1/4 turn or
90˚ turn is required from the OFF position to the fully OPEN position. Illustration I

ON/OFF AIR SWITCH
Some whirlpool baths pumps are equipped with an on-off air switch. Each
depression of the switch will actuate the pump. If off, one depression will turn the
pump on, if on, the next depression will turn it off.

TOTAL MASSAGE BATHS
Total Massage units are a combination of whirlpool and air massages. The top three controls on the “Therapy
Control Center” operate the whirlpool and the bottom three controls operate the air system. The whirlpool and
air massage systems may be used at the same time if desired.
The whirlpool is controlled by the top three-button control.
1. The button on the left switches the pump on or off. The other features will not operate unless the pump is
turned on.
2. The middle button sets the power level of the pump. Holding the button depressed will cycle the pump
power from low to high in a continuous cycle. When the desired level is reached, remove your nger quickly
from the button to maintain that power setting.
3. The button on the right is a three-step wave action button:
a. Position #1 operates the pump at a steady ow.
b. Position #2 operates the pump at a quick wave action.
c. Position #3 operates the pump with a slower wave action.
The air bath is controlled by the bottom three-button control.
1. The rst button switches the blower on or off. The other features will not operate unless the blower is
turned on.
2. The second button sets the power level of the blower. Holding the button depressed will cycle the blower
power from low to high in a continuous cycle. When the desired level is reached, remove your nger quickly
from the button to maintain that power setting.
3. The third button is a three-step wave action button. Once activated, the air holes expel air in a slow
pulsating ow called wave action. There are 3 steps or positions for wave strength.
a. Position #1 operates the blower at a steady ow.
b. Position #2 operates the blower at a quick wave action.
c. Position #3 operates the blower at a slower wave action.
