STUD LAYOUT:
The American Standard Acrylux Bathtub
will fit all standard 30" x 60" tub walls.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1. PREPARING ALCOVE

• Strip to bare studs.

• Alcove studs should be constructed as shown above.

• Floor must be clean, smooth, and level (check with level). Sub floor must

be installed as in the stud layout. Do not install tub on open floor joists.

• If required, cut hole in sub floor as shown above to accommodate drain.

STEP 2. INSTALLING TUB

• Trial fit tub in prepared alcove. With tub sitting flat on floor, check with

level on top of tub. Tub should be level from front-to-back and
side-to-side (Fig 1).

• A floor leveling compound (smooth mortar) or a similar quick-setting

compound specifically made for leveling floors may be used to fully
support and level base.

• After tub is leveled, if alcove is larger than tub, shim between tub and

studs to create a tight fit. Screw tub flange to studs (Fig. 2).

IMPORTANT:

• Allow tub to reach room temperature before installation.
• Read installation instructions carefully before starting project.
• Keep instructions for warranty information.
