INSTALLATION STEPS

STEP 1.

Unpackage your freestanding bath. Check for damage

and ensure your bath does not come in contact with any

rough surfaces which may scratch your bath. Place your

freestanding bath on cardboard or carpet during installation.

Check the contents of the carton include the following:

1. Complete spa bath with the pipework and touch pad

installed

2. Pump carton wrapped in foam

3. An installation kit consisting of:

a. Control cable for pump

b. 2 x 90'elbows

c. 2 x couplings for install and serviceability

d. 1 x cover plate

4. A pop-down overflow kit

5. A pop-down waste with connector

If any of these items are missing, please immediately

contact your retailer.

STEP 2.

Place the freestanding bath in the correct position for

installation.

Adjust the leveling feet until the bath base is 3-5mm above

the finished floor. If measuring from the unfinished floor take

into account the floor finishing thickness (such as tiles) into

account. Turn the feet bolts and level accordingly.

Ensure there is 3-5mm of space between the bottom of

the bath shell and the floor. Installing directly on the floor

will place pressure on the outside wall of the bath, and will

potentially crack the bath.

Ensure the bath is level so all water can drain to the waste outlet.

STEP 3

Carefully tilt the bath (or support in raised position) and install

the overflow and waste as per manufacturers installation as

provided in the cartons.

STEP 4 PUMP MOUNTING

With the bath level set (and levelled) confirm the centre points

for the 2 x 40mm couplings on the back of the spa. These are

nominally 210mm and 295mm, but the measurements must

be confirmed prior to proceeding.

Once the height has been confirmed,

measure centrepoints on the

corresponding wall (again measuring

from the same floor level) and drill 2

x 75mm (minimum) holes through the

wall to the exterior, or the location

where the pump will be located.

Determine the distance from the back of the bath to the other

side of the wall, and cut 2* pieces of 40mm pipe (not supplied)

to be able to fit from inside the couplings on the back of the

bath, through the wall, and have 100mm on the other side of

the wall (this will be trimmed once installed through the wall)

Glue these pipes into the couplings on the back of the bath.

Connect the controls lead to the touch pad on the pump,

and feed the end with the rubber cap on it through the holes

created above. Once this has been fed through, push the pipes

through the holes, and the bath against the wall.

3-5mm gap

between the bottom

of the bath & the floor
