NOTICE: Unless otherwise speciﬁed, ﬂoor support under the whirlpool must provide for a minimum of

80 lbs./square foot (390 Kg./square meter) loading.

NOTICE: Do not support the whirlpool by the rim.

Make sure the ﬂooring offers adequate support for your whirlpool, and verify that the subﬂoor is ﬂat and

level.

The whirlpool should be installed in a drop-in installation. Construct 2x4 or 2x6 stud framing designed for

your particular installation. Provide for a 1/16" (2mm) gap between the bottom of the whirlpool rim and

the stud framing. Frame the ﬂoor, or construct a frame for a raised installation in accordance with the

roughing-in information packed with the whirlpool.

Carefully lay out and cut the rough deck material. Use the cut-out template if one is provided, or refer to

the roughing-in cut-out information.

Position the plumbing according to the roughing-in information packed. Cap the supplies, and check for

leaks.

Install the drain to the whirlpool according to the drain manufacturer's instructions. Do not connect the

trap at this time.

Position a clean drop cloth or similar material in the bottom of the whirlpool. Be careful not to scratch the

surface of the whirlpool.
