INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (Instalación)
Waterproong
Waterproong technique will determine how you will install the linear drain. If using a traditional type of waterproong, the professional will
typically build a shower pan (wet waterproofed area) with PVC, Vinyl, or Noble Chlo material, follow the instructions shown on pages 4 to 7.
If using a bonded type of waterproong such as liquid membrane or fabric sheet, follow the instructions shown on pages 8 to 11.
USING LIQUID/FABRIC WATERPROOFING (BONDED): Instructions shown on pages 8-11
USING TRADITIONAL WATERPROOFING: Instructions shown on pages 4-7
Liquid
Roll or paint-on liquid
membrane that can be
applied on oors, walls,
and ceilings and bonds
directly to the drain
ange. The total install
time is shorter than
traditional waterproong
methods and typically
saves 2 to 3 days.
PVC Membrane/Vinyl Liner
(Polyvinyl Chloride)
A plastic sheet available at
most plumbing suppliers and
sold in rolls of 4’, 5’ and 6’. The
membrane is layered between
mortar beds and the corners
are folded to create the
shower pan liner.
Fabric Sheet
Sheet membrane that bonds
directly to the drain ange
with an adhesive is sold by
most tile suppliers. Corners
(in and out) are available to
avoid folding. If the shower
pan area is larger than the
roll dimensions, it must be
seamed or joined together.
Tile can bond directly to
waterproong.
CPE Membrane
(Chlorinated Polyethylene)
A rubber sheet available at
most plumbing suppliers
and sold in rolls of 4’, 5’ and
6’. The membrane is layered
between mortar beds and
corners are folded to create
the shower pan liner.
