INSTALL FINISH WALL MATERIAL
Apply 1/8" (3mm) thick furring strips to the studs to ensure
the wallboard installation is true and level.
Apply water-resistant sealer to the nailing-in flange.
Install wallboard with the factory edge (the paperbound
edge) a maximum of 1/4" (6mm) above the finished,
concave surface of the module.
The front nailing-in flanges should be similarly furred, and
the wallboard sealed to the nailing-in flange. Mud, tape,
and finish the drywall.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
Seal all openings around the valves and outlets with
water-resistant adhesive sealant or plumbers putty.
Install all finished faucet and drain trim according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
Install any extra grab bars or towel bars through the
module walls, and fasten them into place directly to the
bridging previously installed. Select screws, bolts, and
backing to properly secure all grab bars. Follow the
accessory manufacturer's instructions.
Install the shower door according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
