Before You Begin

IMPORTANT! Use clear 100% silicone sealant. Latex, caulk, or siliconized latex sealants may not provide
water and mildew resistance over the life of the product.
Review the manufacturer's instructions for the plumbing components, shower doors, and any other
accessories that you plan to install.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Unpack and inspect the received components for damage or missing parts. If you find any damage
or missing parts, do not install the component. Report any damage or missing parts immediately
to the place of purchase.
Construction Considerations
CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Do not add silicone sealant unless directed. The inappropriate
use of sealant may trap moisture and could cause leakage, mold, or mildew.
IMPORTANT! Risk of product damage. The wall surround sections may be backed with foam to bring
the back of the wall into contact with the stud framing. This foam is not packing material and should not
be removed.
This receptor or shower unit must be installed in an alcove.
For receptor-only installations, apply clear 100% silicone sealant between the edge of the finished
wall and the receptor. If adding a shower door, apply sealant according to the shower door
manufacturer's instructions.
Locate the rough plumbing for the drain according to the roughing-in dimensions for your
particular model.
