IMPORTANT! Choose a fill spout which will provide adequate air space above the bathing well rim of the

the diverter vacuum breaker must maintain a minimum 1
″
(2.5cm) air gap above the outer rim.
NOTE: An access panel must be installed for future maintenance.
If you have not yet done so, connect the drain to the trap according to the drain manufacturer’s
instructions.

until instructed.
Make sure all supply connections are tightened securely.
Open the hot and cold water supplies, and check the supply connections for leakage.
