3. Secure the Whirlpool to the Subfloor

CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not lift the whirlpool by the piping or pump, or use the piping or
pump for structural support of the whirlpool.
- Choose the installation option that best applies to your particular installation. Follow the
appropriate instructions.
- If the subfloor is not level, shim the whirlpool base as necessary.
Option for Using a Cement or Mortar Bed
- Spread a 2" (5cm) thick layer of cement or mortar on the subfloor where the whirlpool will be set. This will help
secure, level, and support the unit.
NOTE: Do not use gypsum cement or drywall compound for this application, as they will not provide an
acceptable, durable bond.
- With help, carefully lift the whirlpool into place.
- Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap. Make sure the whirlpool is level. Use screws or lag bolts to secure the
pump base to the floor. Drill small pilot holes through the whirlpool base as needed.
Option for Using Construction Adhesive
- Apply a generous amount of high quality construction adhesive to the bottom of the whirlpool base. With help,
carefully lift the whirlpool into position.
- Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap. Make sure the whirlpool is level and resting on all support blocks. Use
screws or lag bolts to secure the pump base to the floor. Drill small pilot holes through the whirlpool base as
needed.
Option for Using Silicone Sealant
- With help, carefully lift the whirlpool into position.
- Insert the drain tailpiece into the trap. Make sure the whirlpool is level. Use screws or lag bolts to secure the
pump base to the floor. Drill small pilot holes through the whirlpool base as needed.
- Apply a continuous bead of high quality silicone sealant around the entire rim of the whirlpool.
