Installation Guide

Suboor Prep

You must begin with a dry and structurally sound suboor. If water damage, rotting, or any other

structural defects are present, you MUST repair prior to installing your new showerboard. A clean

and level suboor is required for a successful installation. After cleaning the suboor, use a level to

check the suboor. The suboor MUST be level so that the showerboard will drain correctly.

Note: a self-leveling mortar can be used to level the suboor.

Mix a modied thin-set mortar suitable for the suboor as per

that the thin-set is troweled in the same direction. Spreading the

thin-set with a square notched trowel will assure full coverage. Set

the shower pan in place.

pan just before tile installation.

needed. You can cut the foam board with a utility knife

or a circular saw. If the hole in the suboor is wider

area around the PVC pipe. Install the Dural adapter to
