Plumbing Requirements:
It is required that a licensed plumber make all plumbing connections. He can select the
best method of connection and if Reduced Pressure Zone Backflow Preventers are required.
Rough in Specifications:

Drain requirements
The tub is equipped with a 2” nominal (2 3/8” O.D.) PVC drain pipe. Figure 3, 4 & 5 show
three different options for roughing in the drain pipe – from the floor, from the side wall, and
from the back wall. The connections for those two options are shown in figures 7 & 8
It is required that a licensed plumber make all plumbing connections. He can select the
best method of connection for the particular situation.

Hot and cold water supply requirements:
3/4” supply lines with on/off valves with 3/4” NPT female threads. We recommend 3/4” ball
valve with 3/4” NPT female ports. (Valves supplied by others.) See figure 4, 5 & 6 for
recommended locations.
For optimum performance, dynamic pressures should be nominally equal between hot and cold
supplies.
Maximum static supply pressure: 145 PSI.
Maximum dynamic/maintained supply pressure: 81 PSI.
Maximum supply Hot water temperature: Consult local requirements for maximum allowed
supply temperatures. (Not recommended over 120oF)
Electrical requirements
The Cascade Alcove tub is rated 6.5 amps at 120 Volts AC.
A 15 amp GFCI circuit is required.
See Figure 4, 5 & 6 for the location of a small junction box from which the power supply will
come. It will be connected via flex conduit to the field wiring box of the tub. It is located
inside the side access door of the tub below the larger electrical box. See figure 9.

It is recommended that the power wires and conduit be connected to the supply box prior to
moving the tub into place. Then, connect the conduit to the tub’s field wiring box and make the
final wiring connections after the tub is in place.
A licensed electrician is required to make all electrical connections.
