Jacuzzi tubs have pressure jets that shoot water and air to provide a relaxing and comfortable bath. They are commonly found inside and outside of the home. Inside the home they are frequently located in a bathroom or in a separate room in a walkout basement area. It is important to frame in a Jacuzzi whirlpool tub to provide support and to hide the mechanical and electrical workings external to the tub.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/framing\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">Framing a Jacuzzi tub<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span> is easy to do, and should normally be done prior to the installation of the tub.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">If you have plans to install a Jacuzzi tub first check with your local building inspector as you will most likely need to pull a permit for the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/electrical\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">electrical work<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span>.

For example, make sure there are adequate floor joists of both size and frequency underneath the proposed Jacuzzi whirlpool tub area. In addition, make sure the subfloor is constructed out of \u00be\u201d tongue and grooved plywood and that it is not damaged in any way.\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"47%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00CG8VWY2\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B00CG8VWY2&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;linkId=0d167a49ab840e9801572beafac7ac34\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ASIN=B00CG8VWY2&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;WS=1&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B00CG8VWY2\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">It is important to remember when framing a Jacuzzi tub that the full weight of the Jacuzzi tub will actually rest on the floor and not the side walls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">To frame the side walls for the Jacuzzi tub use standard framing techniques. When framing the Jacuzzi tub walls use 2x4s or 2x6s. The walls should be constructed by including a top and bottom plate and vertical stud members spaced on 16 inch centers. The wall height should be the same height as the bottom edge of the Jacuzzi tub when it rests flat on the floor with any required spacers installed. Use a measuring tape to measure from the bottom edge of the Jacuzzi tub overhang to the floor, to determine the proper framed wall height.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Make sure to identify a location in the framed wall area for an access panel.

The mortar is necessary to help provide better support for the fiberglass Jacuzzi tub.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Next, place a layer of plastic over the soft mortar bed and apply construction adhesive to the bottom of the support blocks.<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"49%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/home_addition_bid_sheets\/bathroom-remodeling-bid-sheet\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4433\" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Bathroom_Remodeling_Bid_Sheet_Cover-Page-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Bathroom Remodeling Bid Sheet\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Bathroom_Remodeling_Bid_Sheet_Cover-Page-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Bathroom_Remodeling_Bid_Sheet_Cover-Page-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Bathroom_Remodeling_Bid_Sheet_Cover-Page.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Use this <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/home_addition_bid_sheets\/bathroom-remodeling-bid-sheet\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">bathroom remodeling checklist<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span> and save time and money on your bathroom remodel.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Now, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/bathrooms\/caulking-bathtub-or-shower-stall\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">apply a bathroom and kitchen silicone caulk<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span> around the perimeter of the framed Jacuzzi tub wall to create a water tight seal with the bottom edge flange of the Jacuzzi tub.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Then sit the Jacuzzi tub into the framed Jacuzzi base.
