Now that all wall panels are installed, remove the

protective cardboard from the floor and use a 2 foot level

to re-check the downward floor draft to the drain. Use the

same procedure as described in Step 18 of this manual.

Since there is minimal floor slope to the drain, it is

critical factory slope be maintained so the shower drains

well. To accomplish this, temporary bracing must be put in

place to assure the floor remains in the proper position as

the adhesive cures.

Before installing the bracing, place a padded piece of wood

on the top center of the threshold and directly on top of the

drain. Pad the wood with soft cloth or cardboard to prevent

damage to the finish.

Install temporary 2 x 4 stud bracing so they sit on top of

these wood pieces. Attach these studs to the room framing

above the shower, or pad to the ceiling. (See Figure 26).

Remove the temporary bracing after 72 hours. Place a

piece of cardboard in the shower to protect the finish.

Caulk all seams with white acrylic bathtub caulk.

Confirm fit and level. Inspect that the grout lines on the side

wall match up with the grout lines on the back wall.

Using a grease pencil or china marker to make a short line

across the grout lines makes it easier to see if the grout lines

are in alignment.

Pre-drill mounting flanges and attach to framing studs

with screws. Make sure wall panel remains level and plumb

and the seam is tight.

Repeat the procedures in Step 22 for opposite side wall.

Lift the side wall and place it on the pan. Make sure alignment

pins on the pan and back wall line up. Clear fingers and slide

the wall into the installed position. (See Figure 25)

Clean and apply a continuous 3/8” bead of 100% RTV sili-

cone caulk along the entire length of the vertical surface of

the back wall where the side wall panel mates to the back

wall. Apply the caulk completely around each alignment pin.

(See Figure 23).

Install the rubber caulking gasket around the drain pipe.

Trim the length of the pipe if necessary. Apply soap to the

caulking gasket to lubricate it. Place the caulking gasket on

the drain pipe and press it down into the drain assembly until

it seats. Snap the strainer plate onto the drain.

Pour water across the floor to confirm good draft to the

drain so the water drains completely with no puddling.

Make certain the drain does not leak.

Note: The manufacturer and supplier of this product is not

responsible for leaking drain conditions. Proper installation

of the drain fitting and pipe is the installers responsibility.
