1. Prepare the Site

NOTICE: Unless otherwise specified, floor support under the whirlpool must provide for a minimum of 80
lbs./square foot (390 Kg./square meter) loading.
NOTICE: Do not support the whirlpool by the rim.
- Make sure the flooring offers adequate support for your whirlpool, and verify that the subfloor is flat and level.
- The whirlpool can be installed in a drop in, flush, alcove, or tile in installation. Construct 2x4 stud framing
designed for your particular installation. Frame the floor, or construct a frame for a raised installation in
accordance with the roughing in information packed with the whirlpool.
- Use the template packed with the whirlpool to carefully lay out and cut the rough deck material. For flush mount
installation, allow for the thickness of the planned deck material.
- Position the plumbing according to the roughing in information packed. Cap the supplies, and check for leaks.

2. Prepare the Whirlpool

- Install the drain to the whirlpool according to the drain manufacturer's instructions. Do not connect the trap at
this time.
- Position a clean drop cloth or similar material in the bottom of the whirlpool. Be careful not to scratch the surface
of the product.
