IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW
ALL INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO INSTALLING THE UNIT
WARNING: When using this unit, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
DANGER: To reduce the risk of injury or drowning, do not permit children to use this unit unless they
are closely supervised at all times.
Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not
recommended by the manufacturer.
Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
WARNING: To avoid injury, exercise care when entering and exiting your bathtub.
WARNING: Risk of accidental injury, or drowning; do not use alcohol, drugs or medication before or
during the use of the bathtub.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock; do not allow electric appliances such as hair dryer, lamp, telephone,
radio or television within 1.5 meter (5 feet) of this bathtub.
WARNING: Risk of hyperthermia and possible drowning; Water temperature in excess of 38ºC may
be injurious to your health. Check and adjust water temperature before use.
If you suffer from headache, dizziness or nausea, get out of the bath and take a cool shower. The water
in your bath could be too hot and you may be suffering from hyperthermia. If this problem persists,
consult your doctor.
Inappropriate use of essential oils, at full strength, may cause skin irritation and could damage the bath
surface.
WARNING: Some brands of Wintergreen essential oils have been known to damage acrylic surfaces.

The services of a professional plumber are required for the installation of the bathtub.
1. The minimum structural strength required to support the unit is 1200 lbs, 545 kg (tub and water).
2. To avoid vibration problems, leave a small space of 1/16" between the podium (deck) and the bath lip,
seal that space with silicone.
3. For units with tile flange, leave a small space of 1/8" between the bath lip and the tiles on the walls,
seal that space with silicone.
4. The tub must be solidly supported at its base and leveled. It should not be suspended by the bath
lip.
5. For units with one or many sided skirts, the bathtub must be entirely supported by the wooden feet or
by the leveling legs. The skirt(s) should not touch the floor. Leave a small space of 1/8" between
the skirt(s) and the floor. Seal that space with silicone.
6. Prepare the location of the tub, ensuring that all necessary connections (electrical and plumbing) are
in place.
7. Check that the tub drain works normally as it should.
8. The bathtub must be properly cleaned of all installation debris before filling it up with water.
9. Before finalizing the installation, it is important to test water dripping into the bathtub. Check that there
is no water on the shelves and in the bottom of the tub. NOTE: It is normal that there is a few drops.
If the test is not done, this will invalidate the warranty.

TWO PIECES FREESTANDING BATH INSTALLATION:
1. Place bath in its final position and adjust
leveling legs to make it leveled in both
directions. Draw a reference line on the floor
(around the skirt).
2. Flip the bath, remove the screws that hold the skirt to
the bathtub and remove the skirt.
3. Install faucet, drain and overflow. Use flexible
hoses for hot and cold water supply. Make sure
the overflow is narrow enough to fit between the
bath and the skirt.
Connect bath drain into the floor drain without
any glue to make sure the installation is
appropriate. Draw a mark around each of the 4
legs.
4. Flip the bath upside down on blocks and re-install the
skirt with the screws removed in step 2.
5. Flip the bath/skirt assembly on the blocks.
Make required connections (hot/cold water,
chromatherapy light, keypad, water detector,
blower). For certain models, the blower should
be installed somewhere else than under the
skirt to allow an easy access to it.
Test water supply connections and test drain to
make sure there is no leakage. After testing,
use a small container to collect water under the
bath.
6. Apply a fair amount of silicone on the floor, onto the 4
spots marked in step 3 (4 legs).
7. Remove the blocks and put down the bath in its final
position while connecting the drain.
Note : To lift the bath in the future, remove the drain and
overflow from inside the bath and lift the bath/skirt
assembly.

MAINTENANCE
1. The acrylic of your new bathtub has a glossy finish. In order to preserve this finish, never use abrasive
cleaners containing scouring powder (ex. Ajax, Vim, etc), steel wool, acetone (nail polish remover), dry
cleaning fluid, window-cleaning products, and ammonia compound, paint thinner, mineral or benzene
oil on the acrylic surface, the jets and the handles of your bath.
2. Clean your bath once a week using asoft sponge or cloth witha liquid detergent (ex. Fantastik Original,
Hertel, Simple Green, Greased Lightning, Mr Clean, etc.) and warm water. Make sure the product is
recommended for use on acrylic by the manufacturer (see product label).
3. Remove grease, oil, paint or ink stains using isopropyl alcohol. Rinse well and dry using a soft, clean
cloth.
4. Mineral deposits and soap films can develop on your bathtub accessories. Regular cleaning is
recommended, using mild liquid soap and, if needed, a Teflon scrubbing pad.
5. For small scratches or deeper scratches, and/or any other considerable break, please contact us for
advice on how to proceed and/or an acrylic repair specialist referral.
