Make corner folds as indicated in Figure 5 and staple. Continue stapling the material, working towards the shower stall
front. Try to keep the material as even and free of wrinkles as possible. Fold corners at the dam and fasten securely. The
folds at the dam are somewhat tricky. Try to make the fold as smooth as possible. If it becomes necessary to make a slit
in the material at the dam corners, we recommend that you use PASCO Pre-Fab Corners to protect against leakage. After
securely fastening the material on the outside of the dam (do not staple the material on top of the dam), cement the PASCO
Pre-Fab Corners in place using PASCO Vinyl Shower Pan Liner Solvent Cement, Figure 6. The top half of the shower
drain can now be bolted into place.
Cut the material covering the
drain opening, Figure 7. Do not
make the cut larger then the drain
opening. Locate the bolt holes,
make small slits and bolt the
drain halves firmly in place. To
properly tighten, some drain styles
may require a gasket of extra pan
material. Simply cut this gasket
from a piece of scrap material and
cement it into place over the drain
half
.
3. Test for Water Tightness
Test the shower pan for water
tightness by plugging the drain
with the appropriate size test plug
or nipple when using PASCO’s
Quick Test Shower Drains. The
test plug or nipple must be placed in the drain below the level of the weep holes. Fill the shower stall to the top of the dam
for a period of time sufficient to establish its water tightness. Local codes require certain time limits for this test. Remove the
test plug or nipple and the water
will drain through the weep holes
of the drain. Cover the weep
holes with small bits of gravel or
broken tile to prevent them from
becoming plugged when the
mortar is poured. The shower pan
installation is now complete and
ready for the tile mortar base and
waterproof wall material. Wrinkles
in the material will flatten when
the mortar is poured. If for some
reason the mortar is not poured
immediately after the pan has
been installed, cover the pan areas
with cardboard to protect it from
damage. Remove the cardboard
before pouring the mortar.
