Assembly
After installing your ShowerSpa, some assembly is required
Hand Shower Holder Installation
1. Locate the desired mounting location of the hand shower holder (6) and mark the holes. For best results, mount the hand shower
holder on the same side as the hand shower hose outlet (9).
2. Drill ¼" holes through wall surface using a masonry bit. Drill slowly through wall surface to avoid cracking and chipping.
3. Make certain the opening in the hand shower holder (5) tapers toward the floor when you mount it to the wall. Insert anchors (7)
into holes in wall and securely tighten hand shower holder to wall with mounting screws (6).
Connecting The Hand Shower
1. Insert washer (3) into hexagon shaped end of hand shower hose (4) and attach to threaded outlet on bottom of ShowerSpa. Do
not overtighten.
2. Insert washer (3) into tapered end of hand shower hose (4) and attach to hand shower (2). Insert hand shower into holder.
Installation – New Construction
Extensive Remodel – New Finished Wall Surface
1. Prior to sheetrock, stub-out ½" hot and cold supply lines
beyond finished wall surface, 3" on center. For best results,
attach 90° brass fittings (available at most hardware stores)
to the stub-outs maintaining ¼" – ½" of space between the
fitting and finished wall. The open end of the 90° brass fit-
tings should point down so the supply lines attach parallel
to the wall.

2. The height of the stub-outs is completely dependent upon
the desired mounting height of your Santa Cruz ShowerSpa.
For a person 5'8" – 6'2" we recommend the stub-outs be 38"
from finished floor.

3. Before installation, make certain that water is completely
turned off to both hot & cold supply lines of the shower.
4. Mark location of holes for the mounting brackets, making
sure holes are plumb. For a person 5'8" – 6'2" tall, we recom-
mend placing the holes of the upper bracket at 59¼" from
finished floor height.
3 From the upper bracket holes, mea-
sure downfor location of the lower bracket holes (approx.
33½").
NOTE—Before drilling holes for the brackets, make certain the
Showerspa will rest flat against finished wall surface at the
desired mounting height with the supply lines connected.
5. Drill ¼" holes through wall surface using a masonry bit. Drill
slowly through wall surface to avoid cracking and chipping.
Insert anchors and securely screw brackets to wall. Before
connecting hot and cold supply lines, hang ShowerSpa on
wall, check the height and make sure ShowerSpa is flush
against wall with a secure fit.
6. Connect hot and cold water supply lines to stub-outs—
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Before mounting the ShowerSpa,
check fittings to make sure they are secure. Turn on water
and check for leaks. When fittings are leak-free, mount
ShowerSpa on wall.
7. OPTIONAL—Seal around body of ShowerSpa with a bead of
silicone. DO NOT SEAL BOTTOM.
1 Additional fittings or longer supply lines may be necessary depending on your specific situation.
2 The desired mounting height of ShowerSpa determines height of the ½" stub-outs. The stub-outs must be located at a height allowing
supply lines to be connected and body of ShowerSpa to rest flat against finished wall.
3 The mounting height may vary depending on several factors (i.e. location of supply lines, interference from ShowerSpa plumbing, old valve
access area, personal preference, etc.)
