3. Prepare the Receptor
WARNING: Risk of product or property damage. Do not support the shower receptor by the rim. The
weight of the shower receptor should be supported by the bottom of the shower receptor.
CAUTION: Risk of product or property damage. If a watertight seal on the drain is not obtained,
water damage to the receptor bottom and the subfloor may occur.
Install the drain to the shower receptor according to the drain manufacturer's instructions. Follow
all local building codes, standards, and regulations.
Make sure the shower receptor is level and the bottom of the shower receptor is resting on the
subfloor. Shim as necessary.
Clean the shower receptor to reduce the risk of surface damage, then place a clean drop cloth or
other similar material into the bottom of the shower receptor. This will ensure the unit will not
scratch during the installation process.
4. Secure the Receptor
Drill 1/8" (3 mm) holes through the nailing-in flange at all stud locations. If needed, shim between
the nailing-in flange and the stud to prevent cracking while drilling and to remove any gap between
the studs and the nailing-in flange.
Secure the nailing-in flange to the studs with screws or galvanized screws.
Attach 1/4" furring strips to the studs around the receptor.
Attach the drain to the P-trap according to the manufacturer's instructions. Follow all local building
codes, standards, and regulations.
Install the faucet valving. Open the water supplies and check all connections for leaks.
