Secure The Whirlpool To The Stud Framing - Kohler K-1360 Guia De Instalacion

4. Secure the Whirlpool to the Stud Framing

Option for Integral Flange Models
Drill a small pilot hole through the nailing-in flange at each stud. Add shims between the nailing-in
flange and the studs as needed to eliminate gaps.
Nail 1/4" (6 mm) thick furring strips to the studs to shim out to the edge of the nailing-in flange.
Use #6 large-head galvanized nails to secure the nailing-in flange to the studs.
For tile ledge installations, size and install a pressure-treated wood batten along the nailing-in
flange. Pre-drill nail holes through the wood batten and nailing-in flange before securing with
galvanized nails.
