Attention — Before Installation
Thank you for choosing from among Blu’s quality line of products. We recommend that you carefully read this installation guide to ensure
your bathtub’s proper operation and reliability for many years to come.
WARNING: The tub’s weight may vary between 120 and 250 lbs (55 and 115 kg). We recommend that the installation be done by a
minimum of 2 people as a security precaution. Also make sure to adopt the proper posture when lifting the tub.
Adhere to all local building and plumbing codes. The diagrams in this guide are not construction plans. They are visual aids.
Installation Requirements
Please read the instructions carefully so as to avoid any damage to the fixture.
1. To ensure this product is installed properly, you must read and follow these guidelines.
2. The owner/user of the product must keep this information for future reference.
3. Consult local building codes to make sure the installation complies with standards.
4. Remove the unit from its packaging. Before disposing of it, inspect the unit to make sure its in good shape. Should inspection reveal
any damage or defect in the finish, contact your distributor. The warranty does not cover damages or defects in the finish once it has
been installed. Blu Bathworks’ responsibility for shipping damages ceases upon delivery of the product in good order to the carrier. All

5. Place the unit in the bathroom before you start working. Conserve all nuts and bolts.

remove film where any two surfaces will be in permanent contact.
8. Make sure the bathroom floor is level and strong enough to support the weight of the water-filled bathtub. If you are renovating, bring
down the walls to install framing and plumbing. Make sure the walls are properly insulated and comply with the appropriate building
code.
