INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1. PREPARING ALCOVE
• Strip to bare studs.
• Alcove studs should be constructed as shown above.
• Floor must be clean, smooth, and level (check with level). Sub floor must
be installed as in the stud layout. Do not install tub on open floor joists.
• If required, cut hole in sub floor as shown above to accommodate drain.
STEP 2. INSTALLING TUB
• Trial fit tub in prepared alcove. With tub sitting flat on floor, check with
level on top of tub. Tub should be level from front-to-back and
side-to-side (Fig 1).
FIGURE 1. Check to assure tub is level.
• A floor leveling compound (smooth mortar) or a similar quick-setting
compound specifically made for leveling floors may be used to fully
support and level base.
• After tub is leveled, if alcove is larger than tub, shim between tub and
studs to create a tight fit. Screw tub flange to studs (Fig. 2).
CLEANING
• Do not use any abrasive cleaners or metal scrapers.
• If drywall mud or plaster gets on your shower, it may be carefully removed
with a wooden scraper made from a piece of scrap wood.
• Adhesive may be removed with mineral spirits.

FIGURE 2. If necessary, shim between tub and studs
for tight fit and screw to each stud.
