Before You Begin

WARNING: Risk of personal injury and property damage. Do not select a
rim-mount faucet or large deck-mount faucet for this bath. These faucets may be
inadvertently used as a means of support and are not appropriate or safe for this
installation. Instead, select a wall-mount faucet or alternative deck-mount faucet.
CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Do not support the bath by the rim. The
bath must be supported by the bath base.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
This bath is designed for drop-in or raised-deck installations only.
Carefully plan moving the bath into the installation area. This bath will not easily
fit through doorways.
When planning the installation area, provide access to all final plumbing
connections for servicing.
To ensure a successful installation, the floor must be level.
Adequate floor support must be provided. Consult the roughing-in sheet packed
with the bath for specific floor loading requirements.
If the finished wall material will come into contact with any top surface of the
bath, it is recommended that tiling-in bead be installed. The tiling-in bead
prevents water from seeping behind the wall and allows for an alcove installation
of many drop-in baths when a flanged version is not available.
The basin area requires no additional support when the subfloor is level and
square with the stud framing. Consider using shims for additional support if the
subfloor is uneven.
Plan for adequate mounting and connection space for the faucet.
If a deck-mount faucet is selected, provide adequate support on the deck. For
Model K-1227, select a deck-mount faucet with 4" (10.2 cm) centers. For Model
K-1232, select a deck-mount faucet with 4" (10.2 cm) centers or 6" (15.2 cm)
centers.
Provide properly dimensioned framing.
