Panel Installation; Back Panel - MAAX 107223 Instrucciones De Instalación

IMPORTANT NOTICE
For a finished appearance, install greenboard up to the front
edge of the shower base, leave a 1/2" gap between the shower
base and the greenboard.
In addition, if baseboard trim (not included) will later be
installed along the floor next to the shower base, a 1/2" gap
between the floor and bottom of the greenboard is
recommended (see illustration below).
4. Apply a coat of water or oil-based primer/sealer to all
the surfaces of the cementboard or greenboard (follow
the manufacturer's instructions). Allow the primer to dry
thoroughly before installing the wall panels.

Panel Installation

Back Panel

If the back wall measures less than the width of the panel, cut
the panel to fit the opening (for alcove installation only).
1. Using a builder's square, make sure the shower base
is perpendicular to the side walls. If the walls are out of
square, the bottom of all the panels may need to be cut to
follow the contour of the shower base.

2. If the shower base is not perpendicular to the wall, use
a level and draw a line around the alcove on all three
walls. Measure the distance from the line to the top of the
shower base.
3. Transfer these measurements to both side panels and the
back panel. Cut the bottoms of the panels.
Note: For any panels with tile patterns, this process will keep
the faux grout lines running level, although the bottom
tiles may not be evenly sized from the shower base to
the first faux grout line. Since every installation is slightly
different, it is up to the installer to create a pattern match
that is visually pleasing.
4. For alcove installation only: If the back panel must be
cut (side-to-side) to fit the opening, find and mark the
center of the back wall in the alcove opening. Use a level
to draw a line from the shower base to a point above the
height of the wall panel.
