After the bedding material has been poured and before it sets, lower
the shower base into position with the drain assembly sliding over the
waste pipe Figure C. It will be necessary to "rock" the shower base until
the top of the tile ange aligns with the lines drawn on the stud walls
from Step 1. Make sure the apron is contacting the rough oor along
the entire length of the shower base and ensure that the base is level
in two directions as shown in Figure D.
NOTES: Allow the bedding material to completely harden before
applying weight to the bottom of the shower base.
Place strainer back into place and conduct a water test of
drain and plumbing to ensure there are no leaks.
Tape over the shower base drain trench to protect the nish and
prevent construction debris from entering the drain and nish the
shower base installation as shown in Figure E. Any nish material
such as tile or wallboard must be self-supporting if it contacts the
deck of the shower base Figure E.
Install the water resistant drywall while keeping approximately
1/4" (6 mm) to 1/2" (13 mm) of clearance between the shower
base and drywall to prevent any possible water from wicking.
NOTE: Once the nish material is complete, place the Trench cover
in the trough.
