Installation Guide

7. Firmly press the barrier-free shower floor ramp into
the mortar/thinset. The back (tall) edge of the
shower ramp must engage all eight of the stainless
steel clips to prevent the shower ramp from moving.
The front (thin) edge of the shower floor ramp must
completely contact the floor surface.
Note: Clean up any excess mortar/thinset and allow the
mortar/thinset under the barrier-free shower floor ramp
to cure for 24 hours.
8. Apply a bead of 100% silicone sealant to seal the
joint between the shower floor and shower floor
ramp.
Note: If the shower walls extend past the shower floor,
apply a bead of silicone sealant at the joint where the
walls and shower floor ramp meet.
Floor Drain Installation
If no-hub, cast-iron drain pipe is used, make sure the
end of the pipe is free of nicks, cuts, or burrs. To ensure
a proper seal, lightly sand the outside of the drain pipe
with emery paper or “0000” steel wool.
1. Lubricate both caulk seal gasket (1) and drain pipe
(2) with either liquid hand soap or dishwashing
liquid, and slide the caulk seal gasket over the drain
pipe.
2. Complete the installation by snapping strainer plates
(3) into place. With metal strainers, it may be
necessary to bend the strainer tines slightly outward.
Note: If you need to pry the strainer up from the drain,
you have a proper fit.
3. Place cardboard, or similar scratch resistant
material, in the bottom of the shower floor to prevent
possible damage during further construction.
The shower floor/floor installation is now
complete. DO NOT discard these installation
instructions. PLEASE LEAVE THEM WITH THE
HOMEOWNER.
