Diagrama de instalación

AVISO:

Todas las dimensiones son nominales. La tolerancia para la abertura entre los

postes es de +1/8

″ (3 mm)/-0. Mida con cuidado el producto antes de determinar las

dimensiones del encajonado. Quizás sea necesario colocar cuñas entre la estructura de

postes de madera y la unidad. Si se requiere una pared resistente al fuego, las

dimensiones del diagrama de instalación deberán aumentar según el grosor del

material resistente al fuego. Las dimensiones de abertura entre los postes se deben

medir por el lado expuesto del material de la pared. Las dimensiones del diagrama

de instalación son cruciales para una correcta instalación. Construya la estructura y

coloque las tuberías con precisión.

En caso de instalar una puerta de ducha con esta bañera, consulte las instrucciones de

instalación del fabricante de la puerta para cualquier consideración especial de la

estructura de postes de madera.

Construct the Framing

WARNING: Risk of property damage.

The bath must be supported by the

subfloor. The wall surrounds are not designed to hold the bath in place and are
not intended to be load bearing. The support clips must be used to prevent the
bath from lateral movement.

Framing Provisions

WARNING: Risk of property damage.

The bath must be supported by the

subfloor. The wall surrounds are not designed to hold the bath in place and are
not intended to be load bearing. The support clips or screws must be used to
prevent the bath from lateral movement.

Install a level subfloor. Allow clearance for drainage through the floor joists or

slab and to allow convenient plumbing installation.
For shower door installations:

Refer to the shower door manufacturer’s

instructions for any special framing considerations. It may be appropriate to add

studs for pivot shower door support.
Studs must be positioned roughly as shown in the

″Roughing-In″ section to

properly fasten the support clips. Other stud locations are optional except for

those which must meet the load-bearing requirements of local building codes.

Studs must also allow for the installation of plumbing fittings and a shower door,

if one will be installed. Locate the shower door studs as required by the shower

door manufacturer.

For Baths with Apron Flanges

Ensure that the apron flanges can be secured to the studs. If this is not possible,

install three 2x4 blocks just behind the apron location.

For Baths without Wall Surrounds

Provide the necessary backing or support between the studs for shelving, grab

bars, towel bars or other accessories. Refer to the accessory manufacturer’s

instructions for proper installation.

For Baths with Wall Surrounds

For installation to masonry walls:

Make provisions for plumbing connections. For

the plumbing end wall, construct a separate frame wall a minimum of 6

″ (15.2 cm)

from the masonry wall. For the remaining walls, use 2x2 furring strips to provide

stud locations.
Ensure that the outer stud is positioned with the vertical wall flanges 30

″ (76.2 cm)

from the back wall. The outer edge of the stud should align with the edge of the

wall flange.
