CONSTRUCT FINISHED BASIN,
WALLS, AND CEILING
NOTE: Refer to the Design Guide section of this
manual for finished basin and wall material
recommendations and information.
Install the finished basin, walls, and ceiling
materials according to established installation
methods. For the suction assembly and KĆ7179
Drain, the wall must be 3/4 to 1Ć3/4Ćinches thick.
The total thickness of the basin (basin material
and finished floor material combined) must not
exceed 1Ć1/4Ćinches at the drain for the KĆ7179
Drain. Refer to the installation instructions packed
with the drain for specific details.
Cut or drill holes for the tower, keypad, water
supplies, suction, drain and drain overflow, as well
as any light fixtures or other accessories.
DANGER: Risk of death or serious
injury . Gaps between the suction cover and
the finished basin material present a serious
hair entrapment hazard. The finished basin
material must be constructed so the suction
cover installs against a flat, smooth surface.
Carefully repair or seal all gaps.
Finish the basin wall surface so it is perfectly flat
and smooth within the 5Ćinch diameter area
around the suction hole.
INSTALL SUCTION ASSEMBLY
Apply a thin bead of clear, highĆquality silicone
sealant around the flange rim and on the threads,
and insert the flange into the bushing. Securely
thread the flange to the bushing.
Remove any excess sealant.
Install the suction cover and metal spacer (if
included) to the flange with the suction cover
screw. Use a screwdriver to tighten the suction
cover screw until snug. Do not overtighten. In
addition, make sure all the suction cover holes are
clear and unobstructed to maximize performance.
Press the plug button in place over the screw head.
Permanently secure the suction bracket and pump
box to the wall and floor, if desired.
Allow the sealant to fully cure.
