Observe all local building and plumbing codes.
Install on an adequately supported subfloor.
If the subfloor is not level and access to shim is difficult, install with a
1″ (25 mm) to 2″ (51 mm) bed of mortar cement.
- Construct a plumb stud pocket according to the roughing-in information on the back page.
- Install the rough plumbing.
- Install the drain to the shower base.
- Staple the felt pad, if provided, to the subfloor so it will contact all support feet.
- Without a pad, we recommend the basin area be set in 1″ (25 mm) to 2″ (51 mm) of mortar cement.
- Lift and position the shower base in the stud pocket.
- Attach the metal support clips to the flange at the locations shown in the roughing-in information.
- Level the unit. Secure the metal support clips to the studs. Bend the tabs over the flange.
- Install plastic attachment clips at all remaining stud locations.
- With the unit level, shim under the support feet as needed.
- Connect the drain to the drain pipe. Position a protective liner in the basin.
- To pre-fit the walls, remove the retaining clips. Reinstall the retaining clips before continuing.
- Install the back wall. Insert the back wall tabs into the slots.
- Measure, mark, and drill the faucet holes in the drain end wall.
- Install the end walls. Engage the interlocks, pivot and snap the end walls into the retaining clips.
- The front edges should be flush, with no more than a 1/32″ (1 mm) gap.
- Starting at the bottom, install screws through the dimples to secure the flanges to the studs.
- Secure the walls to the studs along the top. Use shims as needed.
- Cover the framing with water-resistant wallboard. Install the finished wall material.
- Install the faucet trim and accessories, and seal where they contact the wall panels.
- After painting, apply 100% silicone sealant where the unit contacts the finished wall.
- Position the seat inside the threshold and at the far left or right side of the shower base.
