wedi Extension Panels
In addition to customizing our shower bases by cutting them down and re-creating the 1/2 inch channel, wedi also has
three pre-sloped extension panels to extend the shower base. If one extension panel isn’t large enough, you can use
multiple extension panels to achieve the desired overall shower base size. You can use extension panels on one side of
the wedi shower bases or multiple sides. The extension panels are all pre-sloped 1/4 inch per foot in one direction. For
the perfect fit and slope, consider using miter cuts at the shower base corner where two extension panels may meet.
For the Primo and Riolito shower bases, you’ll want to use the 12 inch x 72 inch Extension Panel or the 24 inch x 48
inch Extension Panel. For wedi shower bases thicker than 1 - 1/2 inch where an extension is connected, it will require
a wedi Building Panel to be placed under the extension panel to adjust for a proper fit. If multiple extensions are used,
the proper thickness of wedi building panel will need to be installed under the extension to ensure sloped surfaces
align properly.
For the Ligno shower base, you’ll want to use the 12 inch x 60 inch Extension Panel. When adding an extension panel
at or near the shower entrance, the overall thickness of the shower floor/base is increased and may require adjustments
in the adjacent floor height. For Ligno showers larger than 5 foot x 5 foot it is also an option to use two Ligno Shower
Bases with two drain assemblies with plumbing connections to keep the perimeter height at 3/4 inch.
