        "text": "Removing an acrylic unit involves systematically cutting it into manageable sections rather than sledgehammer demolition. Technicians first shut off water supplies, remove handles, trim, and showerheads, and disconnect the drain strainer and trap assembly. Next, they score and slice the acrylic surround panels using oscillating tools or reciprocating saws, taking care not to nick supply lines or electrical wiring behind the walls. Once the surround sections are removed from the studs, the base pan is unscrewed, unglued, and lifted from the subfloor for haul-away.",
