1. Prepare the Site

NOTICE: Adequate floor support must be provided. Consult the roughing-in sheet packed with your
whirlpool for specific floor loading requirements.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. 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 should be installed in a drop-in or flush installation. Construct 2x4 stud framing or
concrete or brick support designed for your particular installation. Frame the floor, or construct a
frame or support 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 whirlpool.
