Installation guide for Add-A-Bathroom assembled bathrooms.
Please read the entire guide prior to commencement of installation.
Note that this guide is provided for general information purposes only and should not be relied upon without
professional advice about your personal situation and installation requirements. As this guide does not take
personal circumstances or local regulations into account and as any installation is beyond the control of Add-
A-Bathroom, no responsibility is accepted nor warranty implied by Add-A-Bathroom (or its affiliated
entities) by the publishing or use of this guide.
Add-A-Bathroom bathrooms are manufactured and assembled in our modern production facilities and are
supplied ready for installation.
Follow this simple guide and your Add-A-Bathroom bathroom should give you many years of trouble free
service. No leaks, no cracks, no maintenance. If you have any queries, please call us on 1300 559 121.
No specialised tools are required to install an Add-A-Bathroom flat pack bathroom. Installation of a
bathroom usually requires 2 competent people.
All plumbing and electrical work must be performed by appropriately licensed contractors.
The bathrooms are supplied fully assembled, and will have been fitted with a combination of pipe-work,
electrical, bathroomware and internal accessories as per individual order. Before ordering, ensure that there is
sufficient access (and labour) so the assembled bathroom can be manoeuvred to the installation site. (If this
presents difficulty, the pre-fitted bathroom can be supplied disassembled as a ‘flat pack’, ready for on-site
assembly. Please contact Add-A-Bathroom for more details).
Before commencing installation open packaging and ensure all items are correct and in acceptable condition.
No claims regarding damage or missing components can be entertained after assembly commences.
Clean and maintain your new Add-A-Bathroom bathroom with domestic grade non-abrasive cleaning agents.
Walls may be polished with automotive or marine polishes suitable for use on fibreglass. Ensure polishes,
silicone washes, waxes and the like are kept away from any bathroom floor as such products may be slippery.

Installation:
(Prior to installation it is important to perform the stipulated ‘dry run’ to ensure correct placement.)
•Prepare the installation site, ensure the substrate is solid and level, any items that may interfere with the
bathroom have been removed (floor coverings, unwanted power points, skirtings, cornices etc.).
•Cover the bathroom floor with cardboard to provide protection during installation.
•Have your plumber pre-install the sewer pipe-work and bring in any hot and cold water pipes as required.
•It may be beneficial to also have your electrician pre-install wiring prior to the bathroom’s installation.
•Manoeuvre the assembled bathroom into its desired position and confirm sewer pipe, hot and cold plumbing,
electrical, etc. are all correctly placed and align; relocate the unit or plumbing as necessary and recheck. Ensure
that the bathroom sits level. (The moulded falls in the floor will then allow adequate drainage to the waste).
•Mark the floor around the edge of bathroom (to indicate area required for bedding screed). Remove bathroom.
•Should a window be required, carefully measure and mark its placement on the inside of the bathroom walls,
check, and then drill a 6mm hole in each corner. With a suitable disc (thin carborundum or diamond) attached
to an angle grinder and from inside the bathroom, carefully cut between the holes, along the marked lines.
•If your bathroom was not purchased with a pre-fitted hot and cold pipe kit, have your plumber attach any
required pipes and plumbing fittings. All pipes must be pressure tested before installation. (If not factory fitted,
internal fittings, toilet, basin, taps, shower doors, etc. can be installed either at this time or after installation.
Note that only basins with inbuilt overflow protection are to be used.)
•If fitting your own accessories, we recommend adhering (with standard builders’ glue) blocks of ply (or
similar) to the back of the walls of the bathroom where the fitting (basin, pan, towel rail etc) will be. This
provides a firm fixing, and allows for the fitting to be easily removed and replaced at a later date if required.
This will have been done as required for factory fitted accessories. Where safety grab rails, seats etc are
required to be fitted, contact Add-A-Bathroom as these may require additional measures, specific to the item.
•If your bathroom was not purchased with an electrical kit, have your electrician fit electrical at this time.
•The bathroom is now ready for final installation.
•Lay a thick bed of flexible ceramic waterproof floor tile adhesive (with a 6mm-12mm notched trowel), so as to
cover the entire area of the bathroom base. (Note: It is necessary that the entire base is fully supported by the
slurry; as the bottom of the bathroom will not be a perfect fit with the substrate, it is prudent to provide a thick
over-depth slurry. Any excess will be pushed to the side during installation and not present a problem.)
•Manoeuvre the bathroom into its final position. If it is too awkward to lift into position this can be achieved by
sliding the unit in on lengths of timber battens or conduit. When the unit is in its final position simply pull the
battens out letting the unit settle. Ensure the sewer pipe, hot and cold plumbing, window, etc. are all correctly
aligned. (Note: At this point it is prudent to leave the installation for sufficient time so as to enable the bed to
fully cure, usually overnight.)
•If not previously installed, install toilet, basin, taps and accessories as required. (Note: Ensure any drilled holes
in the shower area have sealant applied prior to installing the fitting so as to prevent any water penetration.)
•Connect floor waste, sewer, hot and cold plumbing.
•If not done previously, have your electrician final fit and test as required.
•Remove protective cardboard
Your bathroom should now be fully functional, just requiring the installation of the surrounding wall and door.
Please read the relevant section at the end of this guide.
Ensure all slurries, beads, sealants and adhesives are fully set before use, (normally 24 hours).

Surrounding wall ‘framing’ guide.
Where necessary, wall framing should be to the appropriate standard. The walls around your bathroom will be non
structural, they are ultimately only to conceal the exposed fibreglass, plumbing and electrical and provide a
surface suitable for painting. Other wall claddings would also be quite suitable.
Around the exposed walls of your bathroom, build a standard timber or metal framed wall. Where possible,
framing should be pushed up tight against, and glued to, the bathroom walls. This is especially important adjacent
to the door opening. Where it is not possible to install the framing tight against the walls, cut short lengths of
timber and screw to the framework as braces. The braces should also be screwed or glued to the flanges of the
bathroom, and glued to the back of the bathroom’s walls. Braces (or framework) should be adhered to the
bathroom walls not more than 600mm apart.

Warranty
*Add-A-Bathroom Pty Ltd (the Company).
In the event of any failure within a time period of five years from date of initial sale or shipment
(whichever occurs sooner) of an Add-A-Bathroom* manufactured product (the Product) and such failure
is caused by the direct result of a defect in the material or manufacture of the Product, the Company will
at its sole option replace or repair, supply an equivalent product, or pay for doing one of these.
This warranty does not apply where the Product has been used in any manner not in accordance with the
Company’s instructions, nor the reuse of the Product after its initial installation. Installation and
maintenance must be in accordance with the relevant Add-A-Bathroom technical and installation guides;
current copies are available by phoning 1300 559 121. Add-A-Bathroom recommends that only those
products, components and systems recommended by it be used. The Company will need to be satisfied
that any defect in its Product is directly attributable to material or manufacture defect (and not another
cause) before this warranty applies.
Where Add-A-Bathroom supplies product or equipment manufactured or imported by a third party
(OEM) then the individual OEM supplier’s warranty will apply.
Other than as expressly set out in this warranty and guarantees that cannot be excluded under The
Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010) (and any other law),
the Company excludes all other warranties and guarantees with regard to the Product. To the extent that
it is able to do so, the Company excludes all liability for loss and damage (including consequential loss)
in connection with the Product. The benefits of this warranty are in addition to other rights or remedies
of the consumer under the law in relation to the goods or services to which the warranty relates.
Notification of a warranty claim must be made to the Company prior to any return, repair or
modification of the Product. Unapproved repairs or modifications will void all warranties.
Where any defect or failure should ordinarily have been noticeable prior to the assembly or installation
of the Product, then any warranty, repair or replacement that may apply will be based upon an
unassembled and/or uninstalled Product. Any damage resulting from (however caused) impact or
abrasion after assembly or installation commences is specifically excluded from all warranties. Visible
damage to gelcoat surfaces must be reported prior to the commencement of assembly, or in the case of
an assembled product, prior to commencement of installation and in any event within seven days of
despatch of the Product from the Add-A-Bathroom facility.
To make a claim under this warranty, you must contact Add-A-Bathroom on 1300 559 121. All expense
of claiming under the warranty will be borne by the person making the claim.
