In some cases, access may not have been provided because of

the design of the bath environment and having full understanding
that in this case, it may be necessary to remove the unit for service.

If this is the case, diagnosing a problem may not be possible

without complete access to the plumbing system. This would ne-
cessitate the removal of the unit. Although this practice is not com-
monly implemented, it is an acceptable method.

In some cases access may have been provided in Area A but

service is required in Area B which requires the unit to be pulled for
service and reinstalled.

If service access has not been provided, it is the homeowner's

responsibility to remove the bath and provide the required
access, should a repair become necessary.

Service Access

For partially or fully sunken installations, allow for access to ser-

vice connections. It is the installer's responsibility to provide suffi-
cient service access. The recommended minimum dimensions al-
lowable for service to the bath are shown in the "Service Access"
illustration and on the ROUGH-IN drawing for that tub.

Provide adequate area around unit for air circulation for cooling

the motor and to supply sufficient air to the jets. Do not insulate this
area or around motor.

Optional RapidHeat

TM

Service Access

Where tubs have been ordered with the optional RapidHeat

TM

heater consider an additional service access.

If service access has not been provided, it is the home owners

responsibility to remove the bath and provide the required
access, should a repair become necessary.

Service Access with Skirt

An optional skirt fits along the side of the bath for above-floor

installations and is also an access panel for servicing. Allow a space
of at least 8 inches away from the bath for skirt removal.

The skirt is designed to accommodate the added height of the

tile, linoleum, or other floor coverings up to 1-1/4" (31,75 mm) above
the floor, and will be flush with the floor when installed.

More detailed instructions on skirt installation are provided with

the optional skirt assembly.

Service Access with Integral Skirt

Service access is through the removable skirt panels.
