INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1. PREPARING ALCOVE
• Strip alcove to bare studs.
• Shower stud pocket should be constructed as shown above.
• Floor must be clean, smooth, and level (check with level). Sub floor must be
installed. Do not install shower base on open floor joists.
• Cut hole in sub floor as shown on page 1 to accommodate drain.
STEP 2. INSTALLING PAN
• Trial fit base in prepared alcove. With pan sitting flat on floor, check with level
on top of pan. Pan should be level from front-to-back and side-to-side (Fig 1).
If pan is not level, remove pan and level floor using leveling compound.
• A floor leveling compound (smooth mortar) or a similar quick-setting compound
specifically made for leveling floors may be used to fully support and level base.
• After pan is leveled, if alcove is larger than pan, shim between pan and studs to
create a tight fit. Drill 3/16" holes in pan flange at each stud. Screw pan flange
to studs (Fig. 2).
CLEANING
• Do not use any abrasive cleaners or metal scrapers.
• If drywall mud or plaster gets on your shower, it may be carefully removed
with a wooden scraper made from a piece of scrap wood.
• Adhesive may be removed with mineral spirits.
®
• Ideal cleaners are Soft Scrub Gel
or Comet Gel®.
FIGURE 1. Check to assure pan is level.
FIGURE 2. If necessary, shim between pan and
studs for tight fit and screw to each stud.
WARNING: Some cleaning products are not suitable for use. Read all labels carefully.
DO NOT USE if they say “not suitable for use with ABS, acrylic or polystyrene”.
