Yes this is an acrylic tub (actually a whirlpool) and not too heavy. I
did some quick calculations, but I can't figure out how to maneuver the
bathtub into place. The problem is with the skirt. It is rectangular and
measures 21" high x 59.5" long. If I move one end of the bathtub into
position and lower the other end, the bottom tip of the skirt at the
latter end would need approx 63" to clear the wall: sqrt(21*21+59.5*
59.5)=63. I only have 60.5" of length space. If I push one end in, and
then push the other end, I would need even more space: 67.5". So,
lowering it into position seems to be the best way, but I still don't
see how it can be done with only 1" to spare.



Phughes answered this correctly for you.

You let the skirt drop into the stud wall on the non-faucet side. 60 + 3.5
= 63.5.

I never said it was easy. I said it could be done.
