Getting Started
Freestanding Nouveau Bath
Certain baths have been designed so the outer skin goes all the way to the
floor, as shown in the picture below.
Some Americh International baths are made form double skin acrylic
technology. Both skins are bonded together as one;
there is no panel around
the bath
.
Due to the way the Nouveau Flat top bath is designed, the pop up waste is
factory fitted. The baths are water tested for any leaks wrapped and
despatched.
Installation Instructions
This bath has been designed for floor or wall mounted taps.
The floor which the bath sits on must be as level as possible due to the
bath sitting on it’s flat base.
As the skirted baths have no panel to remove for access to the waste, an
access hole in the base of the outer skin has been cut so connection can
be made from the waste. Picture (A) shows the access hole below

The access hole can be enlarged if required, be careful not to cut into the
structural supports in the bath. The cut should not extend beyond the
base up the side walls.
Plumbing The Bath In
Again we recommend that the bath be fully installed by a
professional/qualified tradesman.
Because the waste is already fitted to your bath the next step is to
connect it to you outlet pipe and secure it to the floor.
A 1 ½”adaptor should be with the bath, this is shown below.
Screw the 1 ½” adaptor onto the end of the waste thread ensuring a
tight fit. Make sure the rubber seal is in the adaptor, shown below.

The position of the bath should have been finalised and the outlet pipe
work should be on place. Once the adaptor has been fitted, with the
use of a compression fitting, slide the bath pipe work down onto the
compression fitting.
Check for leaks before securing to the floor
Once you’re satisfied with the waste connection, with the plug in, run a
little water into the bath and check for leaks. Take the plug out and let
the water drain. Check again for leaks. Then fill the bath half way full,
empty and check for leaks again.
Securing the bath
It is very important that you secure your bath to the floor to stop it
moving from its final position. When the installation is complete, it is
recommended that you apply silicone sealant around the bottom of the
bath to secure it to the floor.
Should maintenance access be needed the silicone can be released by
cutting round it with a sharp knife
Care and maintenance of your bath
It is advisable always to run in some cold water before turning on the hot tap
The acrylic has been tested to relevant standards and once formed, acrylic
can only be cracked by suffering some form of impact, stress or chemical
reaction. The surface of the acrylic is very smooth and easy to clean. Americh
suggests the use of a non abrasive cleaner. The cleaning of your bath should
be on a regular basis.
Avoid cleaning products that contain acetone, ethyl alcohol, amyl or ethyl
acetate, these products can damage the finish of the bath.
Do not use cigarettes near the bath, they could damage the finish.
