Insure the floor and stud walls are square and plumb. Provide a 5" x 5" (127mm x
1
127mm) opening in the floor for the drain (see Figs. A & B). The drain plug
accom-modates a 2" (51mm) PVC waste pipe. The waste pipe should extend above
the surface of the sub-floor, refer to chart on page 2 for the required dimensions.
See product drawings on this page for the specified drain locations.

After the bedding material has been poured and
4
before it sets, lower the shower base into position
with the drain assembly sliding over the waste pipe
as shown in Fig. E. It will be necessary to "rock" the
shower base until the top of the tile flange aligns
with the lines drawn in Step 3 on the stud walls.
Make certain the apron is contacting the rough floor
along the entire length of the shower base. Insure
that the base is level in two directions (see Fig. F).
Snap strainer back into place and check for proper
drainage.
Level
Level base in two directions.
F
Secure the base to the studs as shown, using the
5
screws and the brackets provided. See Fig. G.

Note: Allow the bedding material to completely
harden before applying weight to the bottom of
the shower base.

Before installing drain into
the shower base, remove
strainer (see Fig. C). This
will be installed after
shower base is in its final
position. Install the drain to
the shower base as shown
in Fig. D. Use silicone
sealant between drain
body and shower base.

Draw a line 6-5/8" (159mm) from the

sub-floor on to the studs at each
side of the opening. Using this line
and a level, mark the remaining
studs. (See Figs. A & B.) This will be
the installed height of the shower
base. Mix the low-shrink bedding
material (grout, mortar, plaster, etc.).
Concrete is not recommended.
Apply enough bedding material to
support the entire bottom of the
shower base. The bedding material
must not be used under the apron
(front edge).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Your American Standard shower base is designed to last indefinitely
with reasonable care and maintenance.
The high-gloss acrylic surface is resistant to impact and retains its luster
with proper care and maintenance. An integral, slip-resistant surface is
incorporated for user safety.
General Cleaning: Do not use abrasive cleaners; a mixture of warm
water and a mild liquid detergent is adequate for most cleaning. Strong
detergents formulated for use on tile or porcelain-enamel surfaces
should be avoided.
Caution: Do not allow liquid detergent containers to remain on base
surfaces for more than a few moments. Do not use Lestoil, Windex, Mr.
Clean, Dow Disinfectant (spray or concentrate), or Lysol Basin, Tub and
Tile Cleaner. Do not allow nail polish remover, dry cleaning fluid, acetone,
paint remover, or other solvents to contact acrylic surface.
