» The installer is solely responsible for determining the requirements necessary for compliance with all codes involving installation of this shower.
» All published unit dimensions are for reference only. Any critical dimensions required for installation should be taken directly from the shower base being installed.
» Carefully check the shower base upon receipt. Notify your supplier immediately if any questions or problems are encountered during this process.

» Surface damage.
» Color coordination to other bathroom fixtures.

» It will be necessary to “rock” the shower base until the top of the shower base flange aligns with the lines drawn on the studs.
» Make certain the apron is contacting the floor along the entire edge of the base. If shims were used re-install them.
» Insure the base is level in two directions and against the stud framing.
» Fit drain assembly into shower base. Note: Allow the bedding material to completely harden before applying weight to the bottom of the shower base.
Installation (Note
: Shower base shown in photos may vary from actual style of base being installed.)
» Location of drain pipes and shower base drain must be made before the installation of shower base. The drain plug accommodates a 2 inch PVC waste pipe.
» Insure the floor and stud walls are square and plumb.
» After leveling base on sub floor (use shims if necessary), draw a line on the studs at the top edge of the shower base flange. This will be the installed height of the shower base.
» Make certain the drain assembly lines up with drain hole of shower base.
