3. Install the Whirlpool

NOTICE: Do not lift the whirlpool by the piping or pump, or use the piping or pump for structural

support of the whirlpool. To avoid damage to the whirlpool, lift at the sides of the whirlpool.

If the subﬂoor is not level, shim the whirlpool support blocks or molded supports as necessary.

Option 1: Install Using Construction Adhesive

NOTE: Some models come with support blocks; some models have molded supports.

Apply a generous amount of high-quality construction adhesive to the bottom of the support blocks

or molded supports. With help, carefully lift the whirlpool into position.

Option 2: Using a Cement or Mortar Bed

NOTE: Do not use gypsum cement or drywall compound for this application, as they will not provide an

acceptable, durable bond.

Set the basin area in 1″ (25 mm) to 2″ (51 mm) of mortar cement.

NOTE: The pump control (when the pump banding straps are cut) must rest directly on the subﬂoor.

The pump control should not be in contact with mortar.

Secure the Nailing-in Flanges (Alcove Units)

Drill a small pilot hole through the nailing-in ﬂange at each stud. Add shims as needed.

Use large-head galvanized nails to secure the nailing-in ﬂange to the studs.

Nail 1/4″ (6 mm) thick furring strips to the studs.
