Frequently Asked Questions
Q How thick are the walls?
A 0.2 inches thick, on average.
Q Are the walls repairable in the field?
A Yes. Color-matched kits for joints/trim and walls are available to repair
scratches and small cracks.
Q What shower bases are compatible with the Choreograph wall
panels? Is it required to use a KOHLER
®
shower base with the
wall panels?
A Choreograph walls are compatible with all KOHLER and STERLING
®
shower bases and tubs. Given the nature of Choreograph walls, they do
not require a KOHLER shower base. However, if the shower base does
not have a nail/tiling flange, care should be taken to manage how the
walls and shower floor meet to ensure proper water containment.
Q How should the walls be stored?
A Walls can be stored vertically or horizontally. If walls are stored
vertically outside of the package, it is recommended that they are laid
flat for 24 hours prior to installation. In the rare case a bow occurs in
the wall, bracing can be used after installation to help remove the bow.
Q Are the shower walls fire-retardant?
A Yes. They are tested in accordance with ASTM E162-08; the material
is classified as a Class I or Class A material. Tested in accordance
with ASTM E662-09, the material has an average smoke density
rating of 234.
Q Can the walls be installed over tile?
Yes. See the detailed installation instructions for the proper procedure.
The edge trim with return can be used to finish this type of installation.
Q Can the walls be installed on the floor or the ceiling?
A The wall material cannot be used on floors but can be used on ceilings.
See the detailed installation instructions for the proper procedure.
Q Can the walls be installed outside the shower/bath space?
A Yes. Be sure to test adhesives for proper bonding to the
substrate to which you are attaching the walls.
Q What happens if I accidentally use a bleach product on the walls?
A It is not recommended that you use cleaning products containing
bleach. Limited exposure should not damage panels but prolonged
and covered exposure could lead to discoloration that would not
be covered by Kohler’s warranty.
Q Can I install on a wall with a window?
A Yes. The ability to cut the material will allow you to make an opening
in the wall panel for the window. Additional wall material pieces can be
cut as needed to cover the inside of a window sill. Choreograph joints
and trim can be utilized to help manage the sections of wall material
where they come together.
Q Is there color-matched silicone available?
A Not at this time.
Q Are the walls compatible with steam?
A Yes.
Q How much weight will the accessories hold?
A When properly installed and used per the installation instructions,
specification guide and homeowner’s guide:
The shower stool will hold 300 lb, tested per ANSI Z124.1
combined standard.
Shower barres will hold 300 lb, tested to the CSA/IAPMO
combined standard.
Material
Choreograph shower walls are manufactured from a proprietary
composite material we call Serica
®
. Kohler relied on its 30 years of
compression molding experience to produce a material that will stand
up beautifully to daily wear and tear in the bathroom. The patented
process combines the optimal amount of crushed stone together
with fiber strand reinforcement, and then subjects the mix to extreme
pressure. Serica is engineered for enduring strength and timeless
design in any showering environment.
