Good evening folks,
I recently purchased a Kohler Archer acrylic bathtub and I am fitting it in place to see what I need to do. I have noticed that my subfloor is uneven from side to side, where the side that screws into the studs is higher than the side the apron is. Front to back is actually pretty level, maybe 1/16" off, which can be corrected easily. I planned to set the tub in mortar and level it. My question is pretty simple. Does the apron need to rest on the floor, or can it sit above the floor slightly when it's level? I plan to tile the floor, so the space will obviously be covered by the tile, and it will be caulked when I am done. Sorry for the amateur question. I tried searching the forum and the internet pretty extensively and didn't come up with much. Thanks in advance for the help.
