    Brian meant:

    www.Sterlingplumbing.com

    Either contact the people that you purchased this tub from as they are usually required to make things right, or I would return the tub to them...that, or contact the people at sterling (KOHLER company) above...should be able to help you!

    I strongly suggest that you bed this tub in a BEDDING SUBSTRATE (ask sterling) as well as adding the supports. This Vikrell material can be tricky and can get hairline cracks if not bedded properly!
