Installation Instruction for Wood Joist Support Floor
1. Use a 2”X8” wood beam to create a Cross Support Brace as shown in Figure 2. The Cross Support
Brace should be vertically positioned to allow the top surface of tub filler Rough-in Kit to be flushed or
¼” higher than the Finished Floor (i.e. the distance between the top surface of the Cross Support Base
and the Finished Floor must be approximate 4 ½ - 4 ¾ inches.) The Cross Support Brace must also be
horizontally leveled.
2. Orient the Inlet Fittings of the Rough-in Kit facing to the water supply source. Use the provided
Wood Screws (6X) to attach the Rough-in Kit to the Cross Support Brace.
3. Connect water supply to the ¾” NPT threads of the Inlet Fittings. ½” copper supply pipe can be
soldered/brazed directly to the Inlet Fittings (use a wet rag to prevent overheating o-rings of the two
Plugs.)
4. Turn on water supply and check for leaks.
5. Complete the Finished Floor. Note: floor material must not cover the Alignment Plate because the
plate has to be removed during Tub Filler installation.
