For “Goof Proof” shower oor construction.
Install the kit
The Quick Pitch® Float Stick System permits easy construction
of shower oors with the proper minimum water drainage slope
of 1/4” per 12” run. With this time-saving system there is now
no chance for an error in measurement, or the need for a level, to
achieve a properly sloped shower oor. The Quick Pitch® Float
Stick System uses a Center Ring and tapered Float Sticks to as-
sure the correct drainage slope in standard or custom shower ar-
eas with walls up to 6’ in any direction from the oor drain. This
system does not add to the pan liner preslope as the Center Ring
sits on top of the drain ange bolts.
Easy to install
Shower oor preparation is easy as the Center Ring is placed over
the drain, the Float Stick layout and length are determined and
installation proceeds with the Float Sticks in place guaranteeing
proper drainage. The Center Ring has 24 Standard Float Stick
attachment slots spaced every 15°, a 3 5/8” inside diameter and
is 1” high.
The Float Sticks are available in both Standard (these connect to
the Center Ring, have a 1” to 1 3/4” taper and cover the rst 36”
from the oor drain) and Extended (these connect to the Standard
Float Sticks, have a 1 3/4” to 2 1/2” taper and cover any area from
36” to 72” from the oor drain) length sizes and are both 1/2”
wide x 36” long.
The Float Sticks have holes in their vertical web which help to
act as oor reinforcement, and both sticks are also easily cut to
length with a hacksaw. All three components are made of molded
plastic and become a permanent part of the shower oor.
