PREPARE MODULE
Install the drain according to the drain manufacturer's
instructions.
Lay out the location of holes for the supply or mixing valve.
Drill a 1/4" (6mm) diameter pilot hole for the fittings at each
location marked.
INSTALL MODULE
Carefully slide the module into the recess.
Position the right side of the front frame and header into the
recess, and nail in place.
Be sure the bottom of the module is firmly supported against
the floor. Some framing adjustments may be necessary.
However, no additional support is required. The module
must be plumb and level to ensure proper shower enclosure
installation.
Use drywall screws or #6 large-head galvanized nails to
fasten the front and top nailing-in flanges to 2x2 braces at
pre-drilled 18" (45.7cm) centers. Be careful, when nailing, to
prevent possible damage to the finished surfaces.
Complete the drain installation. Rough-in the shower, valve,
and supply connections now. Test for leaks.
Strap the supply connections to the stud supports.
Provide access for future plumbing maintenance.
INSTALL FINISHED WALL MATERIAL
Install water-resistant wall material for either flush or
alcove installation as follows:
For flush installations: Install water-resistant wall
material to within 1/4" (6mm) of the module edge. Install
desired trim around the unit to conceal the module edge.
Also install trim along the bottom apron edge.
Tape, mud, and finish the wall material. Seal the openings
around the valves and outlets.
For alcove installations: Install water-resistant wall
material around the unit to conceal the module edge.
Tape, mud, and finish the wall material. Seal the openings
around the valves and outlets.

NOTE: For multiple installations (if supply fittings are
located accurately during rough plumbing) make a template
of lightweight plywood that contains pilot holes to mark hole
locations on the back side of the module.
From the finished face of the module, drill holes to the
required size using a hole cutting saw.
Clean the module recess thoroughly.
