11. Complete the Finished Wall
NOTE: Locate and size the holes for the valves, shower control, spout, and/or shower in the walls
according to the manufacturer's requirements.
IMPORTANT! When applying the water-resistant wall material over the whirlpool flange, leave a 1/4" (6
mm) gap between the whirlpool rim edge and the wall material. This gap helps to reduce the possibility
of water seeping into the wall material.
Brush all dust and debris from the whirlpool flange.
Cover the framing with water-resistant wall material.
Seal the 1/4" (6 mm) gap between the whirlpool rim edge and the water-resistant wall material with
clear 100% silicone sealant.

manufacturer's instructions.
Remove the protective covering from the whirlpool.
Open the water supply lines, then run the water to flush out any debris.
Close the valves.
Check all connections for leaks.
If applicable, install all other accessories according to the manufacturer's instructions.
