Installation Guide

The following steps outline the installation process for your FerdY Floridian Walk-in Whirlpool Bathtub. For best results and safety, professional installation is recommended.

Step 1: Unboxing and Preparation

Carefully cut the packing tape on the outer box. Grasp the handles on the sides and slowly lift the box upwards to remove the lid. It is recommended to have at least two people for this step as the box is heavy. Once the box is removed, the bathtub will be visible, wrapped in protective film. Carefully peel off the protective film and remove all foam strips. For secure transportation, the bathtub is firmly fastened to a wooden pallet. Unscrew the bolts on the four bottom feet of the bathtub to detach it from the pallet. Once the bolts are removed, the bathtub can be lifted off the tray.

Step 2: Faucet Installation

First, cut open the cable ties securing the faucet package. Remove the plastic bag and take out the faucet. Remove any temporary fittings used for packaging. Carefully place the faucet onto the pre-drilled hole on the bathtub and tighten it securely from underneath. The adjusting handles are pre-installed and do not require additional assembly. Finally, connect the faucet's pipes and tighten them securely.

If your installation space requires it, an extension board is provided to fill larger gaps between the tub and the wall, creating a clean, finished look. Unpack the extension board and accessories. Secure the extension board as needed to fit your specific bathroom layout.
