Point drain shower systems

Prepare the installation/installation site

 Have 2 × 4 blocks installed on base plate between and flush with front of wall framing studs to best support wedi wall

panel / shower base transition.

 Subfloor is stable and loadbearing, flat and level, and meets deflection criteria of maximum L/360 as per IRC. Wooden or

concrete structural substrates are dry and sufficiently loadbearing considering live and dead load. Wood and Steel framing

is sufficiently loadbearing, even, plumb and square.

 Floor drain assembly below floor is stabilized, fixed and supported in position, and will not sink under water load. Waste

pipe is level and plumb.

 Only wedi products (Building Panels, Curb, Joint Sealant and Fasteners) are used for wedi Fundo Shower System assembly.

 Installer has received instructions from wedi technical sales staff or is informed about proper installation methods as

described.

 wedi shower bases can be cut to size using a circular saw.

 Follow applicable state or local plumbing codes requiring specific and dimensioned waterproofed areas for a shower system

or other wet room installation. Requirements in this manual supersede local plumbing codes; they extend and are not in

conflict. wedi Shower Systems or other wet room installations in which non-wedi product is also used require specific

project recommendations by wedi and may reduce the extent and installation area of protection offered by wedi’s warranty.

 Ensure that no fasteners are used and penetrate through any horizontal building panel or shower base surfaces in shower

or immediate wet rooms. This includes tub decks, pony shower wall tops, curb tops made from building panels, seat tops.

wedi panels in such areas are installed in a full surface applied thinset mortar setting bed.

 Seams in the assembly, which are not flat transitions or right angle inside corner connections, are treated with these extra

steps:



1) Assembly parts are installed tight and offer a minimum of 1/2 in. wide continuous contact/ adhesion surface

between two parts, inside which wedi joint sealant is continuously applied.

2) wedi joint sealant is applied over these seams topically, and 1 in. wide on both sides of the seam.

3) wedi mesh tape is installed over these seams and covered with joint sealant 1 in. wide on both sides of the seam.
