1/2 inch back from the edge of the drain's bottom
ange. This eliminates a step down after the drain's
top ange is attached.

Pre-Pitch™ is the first product to be installed.
Pre-Pitch™ is a unique tool that creates the
proper sub floor pitch needed underneath the
pan liner to manipulate the water flow towards
the weep holes that are an integral part of
shower floor drains.
1. Begin Installing Pre-Pitch by rst determining if the sub
oor is level. If sub-oor is not level, a leveling compound
should be used.
2. Layout how many sticks will be needed to accommodate
the oor's particular shape.
3. Reverse mark each stick that needs to be cut to length.
(If the wall is farther than 3 feet from drain, Extended
Pre-Pitch sticks are available.)
4. Cut with PVC pipe cutters, hacksaw or dry diamond
blade grinder. (Stick ends should be spaced less than 2 1/2
feet apart to make screeding easier.)
6. On Concrete, use 2-sided tape to hold Pre-Pitch in
place while the area is being lled with mud. On wood
sub oor installations use screws or nails to secure
Pre-Pitch to the oor. (Be sure the screws or nails are
counter sunk so they do not puncture the liner.)
7. Mix mud slightly
wetter than a dry pack type mix-
ture. This will yield better results for the thin ll close
to the drain. Screed each cell fully and allow to set.
Screed to top of oat sticks and let set.
