STEP 2. ROUGH-IN PLUMBING

A. Install water lines and rough plumbing. Valve should

be located between 36" and 48" from the floor. Use
blocking and secure with pipe straps.

B. If stationary shower is used, install shower riser.

Suggested shower head location is 78" from the floor
(above the endwall).

C. The locations of the valves, mixers, and shower head

should be determined before the walls are placed in
position. Where access to connections is limited, allow
enough flexibility in the supply lines for easier position-
ing of the valves after the unit is in place.

From stable reference points such as subfloor and
front of the double studs, measure and note the
locations of the valves, shower head arm and connec-
tion for body spray jets.

STEP 3

Install Shower Base per Shower Base Instructions.

A. For proper fit and installation of the custom shower

system it is imperative that the shower base is
level on all sides and the wall structure is plumb.

NOTE: Watertight installation of the drain is the installer’s
responsibility. Drain leakage is excluded from the Jacuzzi
Whirlpool Bath warranty of this product. (See “Drain
Installation Instructions” provided with drain.)
