I have a 4'6" American Standark Mackinzie tub. The installation instructions provided are for a different model tub, but same concept (my tub is shorter in both height and width).
I followed instructions. Installed stringer, but to get tub level I had to shim the front of the tub up about 1/4" to make it all level. So I pulled tub, lowered stringer 1/4" and to my surprise, the tub is still sitting off the ground in the front.
Is this tub supposed to rest fully on the Styrofoam pad with the apron off the ground? Or is some of the load supposed to be on the apron?
The tile guy is coming on Monday and I need to figure this out by then.
Thanks.
