SPECIFICATIONS
• Your unit will arrive as ordered--as speci-
fied by Laurel Mountain Whirlpool, Inc., in all
of its literature and as described by its Sales
Representatives and Distributors.
• Construction materials shall be as presented;
I.e., of cast acrylic shells reinforced with a mix-
ture of processed chopped glass in a polyes-
ter resin applied to the underside of the shells.
Rigidity factor is reached by shape and thick-
ness of this material.
• Floors of bathtubs are reinforced in the fac-
tory by installing a wood subfloor and a molded
fiberglass base. Bases are designed to give
uniform support to the tub floor.
• Baths meet or exceed load-bearing and im-
pact resistance requirements of the listed stan-
dards without evidence of crazing or cracking
and with minimal deflection when installed in
accordance with Laurel Mountain Whirlpool, Inc.
printed instructions.
• Whirlpool equipment shall be completely
100% factory installed with a pump/motor as-
sembly--rigid PVC piping--air controls, venturi-
type jets and approved suction fittings, and any
options ordered.
• Each Laurel Mountain Whirlpool, Inc. unit
bears our company logo, a registered serial
number or the Standard Building Code as well
as a certification of a recognized National Test-
ing Laboratory which has found our products
to have complied with requirements set forth
by the American National Standards Institute
and Underwriters Laboratory.
LABELS AND PLACARDS
WARNING: LABELS AND PLAC-
ARDS ARE PROVIDED AS A REMINDER
OF SOME IMPORTANT FEATURES,
“DO’S” AND “DON’TS” OF OPERATION
AND SERVICING. LABELS AND PLAC-
ARDS MUST NEVER BE REMOVED
FROM THE UNDERSIDE OF TUB.
BEFORE INSTALLATION . . . Inspect your
Laurel Mountain Whirlpool, Inc. Bath thor-
oughly upon receiving it. Check it immediately
for a possibility of freight damage. In the event
damage has occurred, make a notation on the
carrier’s bill of lading.
DO NOT remove the bath from its shipping
container until you are ready to pre-test and
install. When opened, cut some of the ship-
ping cardboard to fit in the bottom of the tub
to help protect the floor surface. DO NOT LIFT
the tub out of the box by its plumbing.
• One of the many phases of quality assur-
ance at our plant, prior to shipping, is an ex-
haustive water test to ensure water-tight op-
eration. Enroute, rough freight handling could
conceivably have loosened a connection. Place
the tub in an area where it may be drained af-
ter testing it. Fill it and operate with water to
the overflow and then allow to sit for fifteen
minutes. Inspect all fittings, apertures and
connections for the possibility of leaks.
• Examine the bathtub thoroughly. Any de-
fect must be discovered and reported AT THIS
TIME in order to qualify for our warranty cov-
erage.
• All connections, electrical and plumbing
MUST be made by qualified electricians and
plumbers. They can assure you that the in-
stallation will conform to all applicable local
codes as well as securing necessary permits
for the installation.
• Please regard all warning labels attached to
the bath. DO NOT LIFT by any portion of the
plumbing--or stand in the unit during installa-
tion--serious damage may occur to the unit.
FRAMING-IN INSTRUCTIONS
The dimensions in our literature may vary
slightly in the actual product measurement.
Therefore, installation measurements should
be made directly from your bathtub.
IMPORTANT: The entire weight of the tub can-
not be supported by the rim. The tub must be
supported by the base and sub-floor.
IMPORTANT: For best installation results, it is
suggested to install the unit using a mortar bed
or equivalent material.
When you install the drain fitting, you will
find it protrudes below the bottom of the tub.
Allow clearance in the sub-floor for this dimen-
sion.
Place the unit in its desired location, check
the tub and sub-floor for level, if not level, place
wood shims between sub-floor and support
base to bring to a level position. Mark stud
wall underneath the tub’s return lip. Remove
unit from position and install a 1x stop to stud
wall for lip to rest on to prevent deflection.
Check your unit at this time to see if any
wiring should be completed prior to further in-
stallation. (See wiring instructions.) If the floor
is out of level, the tub support base will have
to be shimmed. We suggest setting the tub
into a bed of concrete.
If all is level, reposition the unit in the de-
sired location.
Since a great variety of installations are pos-
sible with this Whirlpool Bath, special framing
procedures may have to be employed. A ledge
under the rim, or an apron without a ledge, may
be constructed as required. Where installa-
tion is planned against a wall, install the tub
against the studs as indicated, adding block-
ing below the rim to prevent deflection or
movement of the tub, but insuring that the tub
is not supported in any way by the blocking.
The opening should be 1” smaller than the
specified rim dimensions when placing the unit
in a platform floor or cut out installation.
A 1” integral up-flange is available on cer-
tain models. These units should be placed in a
pre-measured studded pocket. Pre-drill holes
through flange to align with studs. Use screws
to secure to studs. NOTE: Do not attempt to
nail directly through flange. Always pre-drill
holes.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
LAUREL MOUNTAIN WHIRLPOOL, INC. 3

In each installation, an access panel must
be provided near the final pump location for
servicing the pump and power panel. This ac-
cess may be through the wall or platform
apron. In the case of a sunken installation,
access may be through the ceiling below the
bathtub.
OPTIONAL: POP-OUT SKIRT
INSTALLATION
NOTE: The skirt is to be installed immedi-
ately after the plumbing and electrical work
have been completed. Do not wait until the
drywall has been completed, as the skirt is the
same length as the tub.
1. Remove pop-out panel from skirt frame.
Do not use metal objects to pry off the
panel. (See diagram.)
2. Place skirt frame under tub rim into cor-
rect placement.
3. Mark top and bottom inside of skirt frame
at center.
4. Remove skirt frame.
5. Place 1x or 2x vertical support at center
of tub, just touching inside marks from
skirt frame.
6. Place skirt frame back under tub.
7. Anchor ends of skirt frame to studs
through corner bead and anchor bottom
of skirt frame to the sub floor.
8. Place pop-out panel on skirt frame.
9. Finish drywall--flooring.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
Rough in the wiring on a single 120VAC, 20
AMP, GFCI protected dedicated circuit for each
accessory installed on the tub.
All Whirlpool Systems and Inline Heaters are
equipped with a molded plug on the end of a
power supply cord.
Install a separate, dedicated 120VAC, 20 AMP
GFCI protected electrical wall plug outlet inside
the access panel for each accessory equipped
on the tub.
EXAMPLE: If the tub is equipped with a whirl-
pool system only, then one GFCI wall plug out-
let is necessary. If the tub is equipped with
both whirlpool system and an inline heater then
two separate circuits with GFCI wall plug out-
IMPORTANT WARNING:
ALL POWER SUPPLIES MUST BE DIS-
CONNECTED BEFORE SERVICING.
OPTIONAL: INLINE HEATER
WIRING (See Diagram A-2)
IMPORTANT: Electric inline heaters are con-
trolled by a “pressure switch,” which is pre-
plumbed into the heater. This switch allows
the heater to operate only when there is suffi-
cient water flowing through the system. DO
NOT BYPASS THE SWITCH. This option is
equipped with a molded plug on the end of a
power supply cord. Check your local codes,
simply install a 120VAC, 20AMP GFCI pro-
tected dedicated circuit wall outlet to within 1
½ feet from the heater unit. Plug the cord into
the outlet.
This option is designed to MAINTAIN tempera-
ture, but, will increase the temperature of the
water in the system to the factory preset high
limit switch of 104 degrees F over an extended
period of time. The high limit cannot be in-
creased adjusting the heater thermostat. The
heater is operated by a pressure switch. Every
time the bath is turned on the heater will auto-
matically turn on to MAINTAIN water tempera-
ture. The heater tube will not feel hot until tem-
perature of water is hot, as the flow of cooler
water will keep the jacket cool.
WARNING: ALL BATHTUBS
EQUIPPED WITH AN INLINE HEATER
REQUIRES TWO DEDICATED CIR-
CUITS. ONE FOR THE WHIRLPOOL
SYSTEM AND ONE FOR OPTIONAL
INLINE HEATER.
OPTIONAL: MOUNTAIN AIR
SWITCH (See Diagram below)
Plug the Mountain Air SwitchTM unit into the
wall socket, and then plug the pump motor’s
power cord into the Mountain Air Switch unit.
The Water Level Sensor is a control that
senses water level through a tub wall. It will
prevent pump damage from “dry firing” (run-
ning without water) and jet overspray by al-
lowing the pump to be operated only with the
proper tub water level. An indicator light is
provided on the front face, and will be on when
the tub water is at or above the actuation level
of the Water Level Sensor. There is a timer that
will automatically turn off the whirlpool after
20 minutes.
DANGER: ALL CIRCUITS CON-
NECTED TO THIS UNIT MUST BE
EQUIPPED WITH GROUND FAULT CIR-
CUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI) PROTEC-
TION. IT IS THE TUB INSTALLER’S RE-
SPONSIBILITY TO WIRE THE CIRCUIT
WITH (GFCI) PROTECTION.
WARNING: ALL ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE BY A
LICENSED CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN-
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIRE-
MENTS OF THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL
CODE AND APPLICABLE STATE AND
LOCAL CODES AND PROCEDURES.
lets are required.
NOTE: Count the number of accessories be-
fore installing the GFCI wall outlets.
NOTE: The power supply cords equipped on
each accessory are only 2½ ft. long so locate
the GFCI wall outlet within 1½ ft. of the intended
accessory.

OWNER’S INSTRUCTIONS
PLUMBING INSTALLATION
Install fill valves and spout in the desired loca-
tions. Be sure that the spout is long enough to
clear the interior rim of tub. If installing filler
valves on deck of tub, be sure that you have
enough clearance for connections of valve to
tub and water connections before drilling or
cutting into tub.
NOTE: Seal the joints under the tub rim and
against the wall with a water resistant seal.
NOTE: Install a standard 1½ in. trap to drain
and overflow.
BEFORE PROCEEDING, MAKE A
FINAL OPERATIONAL CHECK BY
FILLING THE TUB WITH WATER TO
THE OVERFLOW AND OPERATE
FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MIN-
UTES. LEAVE THE WATER IN THE
BATH FOR 30 MINUTES, CHECK
THE CONNECTIONS FOR LEAKS
DURING AND AFTER OPERATION.
NOTE: Complete the installation with a desired
trim material on the back wall, side walls, and
down exposed interior walls.

Power Turn-on:
With the unit connected as shown in Figure 1, the Keypad/Display will show 888
and all status indicators should be ON for a period of 2 seconds. This is a
convenient “lamp test” function to prove all indicators are functioning. All
outputs will be powered up in the “OFF” state. After two seconds, the display will
revert to showing the water temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. If the temperature
sensr is defective, either disconnected/open or shorted, the display will show 5n
for Sensor failure instead of temperature.
ON/OFF Key:
Depressing the ON/OFF key will activate the jet pump at the highest speed level
provided there is sufficient water in the tub or a jumper is inserted into the water
level sensor input. The pump will remain ON for maximum time of 20 minutes of
operation, after which it will automatically shut off. If the jet pump is already ON,
depressing the ON/OFF key again will turn the pump OFF.
When the jet pump is ON, the status indicator for PUMP will be illuminated. The digital display will alternate between the Water Temperature to
the Speed Level (1-10) to the time remaining (1-20 minutes). Each display period lasts for 2 seconds. Thus assuming the water temperature is
104, the initial display will show 104 (water temperature) then L10 (for speed level 10) then t20 (for 20 minutes remaining) back to 104 etc.
Speed Adjust (UP/DN) Key:
If the jet pump is OFF, depressing the UP/DN key has no effect. If the jet pump is ON, depressing the UP/DN key will change the speed on by level
as follows: initially the jet pump is turned ON at L10, the highest level. If the UP/DN key is depressed, the level is changed to L9 and the display
will show L9 for 3 seconds. If the UP/DN key is depressed again, the speed will lower to L8. Depressing the UP/DN key again will lower the speed
to L7 then L6… down to L1, the lowest speed. If the UP/DN key is depressed again, the speed will increase to L2, then L3, L4…until level 10 (the
highest speed) is reached, at which time this process will be repeated.
Massage Key:
If the jet pump is OFF, depressing the MASSAGE key has no effect. If the jet pump is ON, depressing the MASSAGE key will initiate the massage
mode of the control. The speed will be under automatic control and will vary lowest to highest speed in period manner to simulate a “massage”
action of the jets. This action will continue for the remainder of the 20 minute timeout period or until cancelled by either depressing the ON/OFF
key or the UP/DN key.
If the UP/DN key is depressed, the massage mode will be cancelled and the speed will revert to one level above or below the speed that the pump
was running before the Massage mode was activated. Thus if the pump was running at level 8 before the Massage key was depressed, it will now
be at leval 7. If the ON/OFF key is depressed while the Massage mode is active, the jet pump will be shut OFF immediately.
Optional Chromatherapy Light Key:
The light key turns the light output ON and OFF. It is totally independent of the rest of the system. Hence it is not dependent upon whether the
water level is sufficient for normal operation or whether the jet pump is active or not. If light output is ON, the light status indicator will be ON; if
the light output is OFF, the light status indicator is OFF. There is NO automatic timeout function on this output.

OPTIONAL: SOLO-TOUCH OPERATION
OPTIONAL: HYDROTHERAPY BACK MASSAGE
Functioning:
1) Eight jets (four on each side of your spine), 2 jets work at a time cycling up and down your back.
2) This system functions with a 3/4 HP pump, independent of any other system.
3) This system requires a 20 AMP dedicated circuit, 120 Volt.
Controls:
1) The hydro back massage operates with the touch of an air switch. The air switch is located on the tub deck nearest the backrest with the back
massage in it. This system does not have a low water sensor.
2) The speed of the cycling (speed that the jets go up and down) can be controlled by the large round knob (approx. 2 1/4” diameter) on the deck,
located on the hydro back massage end of the tub. Cycling can be sped up or stopped with this control.
3) The amount of air that is allowed to be entered into the hydro back massage can also be controled by an air control (Approx. 1 1/4” diameter)
located on the deck at the end that the hydro back massage is located.
OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT

OPTIONAL: HYDROMASSAGE BUBBLE SYSTEM
Functioning:
1) 16 lateral turbo air jets spaced around the lower side wall of the tub.
2) This system functions with a 2 HP heated blower independent of any other system.
3) This system requires a 20 AMP dedicated circuit, 120 Volt.
Controls:
1) The hydro bubble system operates with the touch of the control pad, which is oblong and about 4 inches long.
2) On the control pad there are four functions: 1-ON/OFF, 2-PLUS (speeds up the blower speed), 3-MINUS (slows the speed of the blower),
4-VARIABLE (automatically speeds up and then slows down the blower speed).
3) There is a purge cycle that automatically comes on 20 minutes after the blower is shut off. This purge cycle blows air to dry any water
from the air nozzles of the hydro bubble system and runs for approx. 30 seconds. Do not interupt the purge cycle, because it will reset to
another purge cycle.
OPTIONAL: NECK MESSAGE PILLOW
Control Features:
• Pump ON/OFF with water sensor control
• Pillow control ON/OFF
• Pillow control speed buttons (3 speeds)
• Automatic 30-minute run-timer for pump
Single Speed Pump Motor Operation:
Once the system run-timer has been programmed, the pump is available for activation. Press button 1 to turn the pump ON
and press button 1 again to turn pump OFF.
Pillow Operation Using the Speed Up/Down Keys:
The pump must first be active in order to have control of the pillow operations. A press and release of the pillow button
turns the pillows full ON and full OFF. Once the pillows are operating a press and hold of the pillow button for 2-seconds
will illuminate the speed Up/Down button LEDS. Once the LEDS are illuminated, the speed buttons can be pressed to select
from the 3 pillow speeds. The button LEDS will remain on for ten seconds of absent button pressing.
The Automatic 30-Minute Run-Timer:
Once the system motor has been activated, an automatic timer is set to 30-minutes. The system will stay in operation until
the run-timer expires, at which time all functions will shut down. The light device timer runs independent of the main
system run-timer.
OPTIONAL: CHROMATHERAPY MOOD LIGHT
Choosing Lighting Modes
The ColorGloTM LED Multi-Color Bath Light comes pre-programmed with 5 exiting lighting modes.
To advance to the next lighting mode, switch the unit off and then on again within five seconds.
To resume a lighting mode, leave the unit switched off to store the last lighting mode displayed in memory.
That same lighting mode will display the next time the unit is switched on.
