Shower Base Installation

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLERS – PLEASE NOTE: most floors are not level. It is best to check the floor for level before installing the pan. If the floor is not level, float the floor with mortar or other suitable material before setting the pan. Allow this material to dry before setting the pan. After setting the pan, you must check it in all four directions (front to back, side to side and diagonally each direction) and shim the necessary areas to level the pan. Check the pan by setting the level on top of the curb, not into the base of the pan. The floor where the pan is to be installed should be clean and free of dust and debris, which could cause the pan to rock. The plumber should connect the drain to the pan and set the pan in place.

Substrate material (sheet rock, etc.) should not be installed until after the plumber has connected the plumbing to the pan. The substrate material (drywall/ Denshield) should stop about one inch above the flange of the pan.
