Position...
Step 2
Once unwrapped, carefully check the bath to ensure
it is perfect condition before undertaking installation.
For biggest impact we suggest that bath is located a
minimum of 150mm away from any wall
Locate the bath in its intended position and draw
around the lower outer edge and mark the waste
location with a pencil. Access to the waste and any
isolation valves should be considered.

Levelling...
Step 3
With the bath in it’s intended position use a large
spirit level to check that it is level on both the
horizontal and vertical plains. Only if the bath is level
will all the water drain to the waste outlet.
Ensure you allow for any variation of the floor surface
and that the bath has been levelled in its intended
final location.

Waste...
Step 4
In most instances the waste will have to be recessed
into the floor and connected using a flexible fitting.
Once the pipe work is completed and ready to
receive the bath we recommend raising the bath on a
number of blocks – this will allow working access for
you to connect the waste to the underside of the bath.
Please be careful the bath is secure as to not hurt
yourself or damage the bath.
Once tight add silicone, remove the blocks and lower
the bath into position, ensuring that the pipe work is
not damaged.

Remember you do not need to fit your bath directly over the soil pipe. It can be positioned
anywhere within the shaded area.

Fixing...
Step 5
Before final fixing check that the bath is level and
connected to the plumbing system, by adding water
and ensuring it drains away adequately leaving no
puddles and that there are no leaks.
Once checked, half fill the bath to ballast it before
securing it to the floor.
Apply silicone adhesive evenly between the base of
the bath and the floor filling the 1-2mm gap.
