3. Prepare the Receptor
CAUTION: 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 receptor rests on the leveling pads provided. When leveling the receptor, shimming
may be necessary. Make sure the receptor is level before fastening to the stud framing.
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.
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.
Attach the drain to the P-trap according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Follow all local building
codes, standards, and regulations.
Attach 1/4″ furring strips to the studs around the receptor.
Secure the nailing-in flange to the studs with screws or galvanized nails.
Install the faucet valving. Open the water supplies and check all connections for leaks.
Run water into the receptor and check the drain connection for leaks.
