Install the shower drain (NOT INCLUDED)
according to the drain installation manual
(supplied with the drain). (Fig 3)
● Plumber’s putty will degrade base material,
causing cracks and potential property
damage. DO NOT use plumber’s putty to
seal between drain and base. Use sealant
or gasket.

● Apply a generous amount of mortar that
has been mixed to a thick consistency.
Lower the shower base into position with the
drain assembly sliding over the waste pipe. It
will be necessary to "rock" the shower base
until the top of the tile flange aligns with the
lines drawn in Step 2 on the stud walls.
Make certain the apron is contacting the
rough floor along the entire length of the
shower base. Ensure that the base is level in
two directions. Place drain cover back into
place and check for proper drainage. Let
mortar cure for 24 hours. Proceed to the
next step. (Fig 4)

● It is recommended not to stand in base
while securing to wall. Set base in corner
and press it into mortar. (Fig 5)
IMPORTANT: Gaps between flanges
and studs must be less than 1/8”.
Insert shims to fill gaps if needed.
