Model Specific Preparation
1. Prior to installation, examine all boxes and packages for shipping damage and compare the piece
count with the packing slip. After opening all boxes and packages read this introduction carefully.
Check that all of the necessary parts are included in the package by checking off the components on
the Parts List. If the unit has been damaged, has a finishing defect, or has missing parts, please
contact our customer support department within 3 business days of the delivery date.
Please note that DreamLine
®
will not replace any damaged products or missing parts
free of charge after 3 business days or if the product has been installed.
Contact DreamLine
®
if you have any questions, and please provide an order number, job name or
other proof of purchase to help identify the original order.
2. Please note that you should consult your local building codes with questions on installation
compliance standards. Building and plumbing codes may vary by location, and DreamLine™ is not
responsible for code compliance standards for your project and will not accept any returns on this
basis.
3. This acrylic wall system is specially designed to be installed over any solid surface. If you are
installing the acrylic walls over existing tiles, remove and replace all loose tiles before the installation.
If you are installing over existing painted walls, remove all loose paint. Sanding the painted surface can
help with adhesion. Note that some cutting and drilling will be necessary during the installation process.
4. Make sure to turn off the water supply, remove faucet, handles or any fixture trims protruding
from the wall prior to installation. Remove any soap film and dirt from all wall surfaces using
regular household detergent, then wipe dry.
5. If this unit is going to be installed in a new construction, please install all of the required plumbing
and drainage before installing the shower. Use a competent and licensed (if required by local code)
plumber for all plumbing installation.
6. Side walls must be trimmed to size in most cases (a straight edge and a razor knife or other tool
suitable for trimming acrylic). Use a straight edge and score the acrylic wall several times to cut to
size.
7. Use an adhesive that is safe to use with acrylic walls, i.e. LN715, LN915 etc. Use caulk to seal around
the bottom/ top edges, top corners and around any fixture cutouts.
8. Designed to be installed over backer board, drywall or tile. Not intended for installation on bare
studs.
9. Making cutouts for shower fixtures will not void the warranty, however making cutouts for window
openings will void the warranty.
10. Professional installation recommended.
