Installation Guide
Ensure your subfloor is professionally evaluated to support the substantial 345-pound weight of the cast iron tub before installation.
Work with a licensed plumber to connect the center drain and coordinate the wall-mounted faucet installation through the pre-drilled 3 and 3/8 inch holes.
Use professional lifting equipment and adequate personnel during placement, as cast iron fixtures are extremely heavy and rigid.
Clean the white porcelain interior regularly with a mild, non-abrasive liquid cleaner to preserve the smooth finish.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Rinse the tub interior thoroughly with warm water after every use to prevent soap scum buildup.
Routine Cleaning Use a soft sponge or microfiber cloth along with a gentle, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner for regular maintenance.
Stain Prevention Avoid letting harsh chemical dyes or bath oils sit on the porcelain surface for extended periods.
Abrasive Avoidance Never use steel wool, scouring pads, or harsh chemical powders that can scratch or dull the enamel finish.
