Ensure that the floor and the studs
are at right angles.Provide a 5”×5” opening
in the subfloor for the drain.
The 2” PVC waste pipe should extend above
the surface of the sub-floor according to the
drain installation instructions and the height
of the Shower Tray.
Mark unit position on floor and through
drain opening.
Mark the locations of the studs on the flange
of the base.
These marks are used to verify base location
after drain is installed. (Fig 1)
The pipe height (A) shall be determined
according to the products on hand.
Place the tray into the designated position
so that the Drain Body drops around the
Drain Pipe and put the Shower Tray up
against the studs.
Level the tray and place marks on the studs
above the upper edge of the tile flange.
If the subfloor is not flat and level, use leveling
