Before You Begin

NOTICE: If extensive shimming is required, all dimensions must be checked and confirmed. Take extra
care when creating centerlines and marking the valve hole and showerhead location. This will reduce the
risk of product damage.
Read all instructions before you begin.
There are two sets of instructions in this installation guide, the receptor and shower wall
installation, and receptor only installation. Refer to the appropriate section.
Before removing the old unit, inspect your Kohler shower walls and receptor for damage.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
If you are remodeling, measure the existing framework before removing the old fixture to ensure the
new unit will fit. If needed add or move studs to create the proper stud configuration that is shown.
To prevent damage, keep the shower components in a safe place until you begin the installation.
Do not install the shower over open floor joists.
Make sure there is sufficient access to move the module into the installation location.
Avoid flexing the sidewalls to prevent damage to the module.
Insulate all exterior walls before installation.
If ceiling height allows, it is recommended that the showerhead be mounted above the shower wall.
The Kohler Model K-702300 shower door must be used with this shower module.
Consult all applicable instructions for accessories and shower doors before installing.
Position the rough drain according to the roughing-in dimensions.
