Place the center wall panel in place resting on the wood blocks. One by one, remove the back blocks and carefully
lower the wall panel down on the connection surface. Note that the wall panel sticks out past the base unit
approximately 3/8” when it is in the installed position. This is a normal function of the design.Take care to make
sure the plastic fasteners slip through the corresponding holes in the wall panel.
26.
Work the wall panel down so the caulking will spread along the bottom to create a water resistant seal.
Make sure the edge of the panel is even with the edge on the shower base. Wipe away excess caulking. Once
the caulking cures, it will assist in securing the bottom of the wall in place.
27.
Using a carpenters level, make sure the back wall is plumb. Fasten the wall to the framing through the mounting
flange using 6D galvanized screws. At this point, fasten at each corner, and do not tighten the screws completely.
There may be need for slight adjustment after the two side walls are installed.
28.
Fasten Back Wall
At Corners.
To install the side walls, apply a bead of 100%
silicone caulking along the entire connection
surface of the back wall and shower base.
The caulk should be applied between the
plactic fasteners and inside edge of the base.

Carefully lift the wall panel opposite the fittings
and place it on the wood block. Take care to
line up all holes in the side wall with the
corresponding plastic fasteners in the back
wall and shower base. Remove the wood
block and move the wall into the installed
position. As with the back wall, the side walls
will stick out 3/8” past the base unit when the
walls are in the installed position.
INSTALLING THE SIDE WALLS
Press the wall into the caulking to create a
water resistant seal. Make sure all seams
line up in a satisfactory manner.
31.
Install one galvanized screw in each corner
of the wall panel to hold it in position.
32.
Repeat this steps to install the opposite wall. The exception is to
guide the control valve stems through the panel as it is moved into
place. Press the panel into the caulking. Make certain the shower
arm fitting is lined up with the hole so the shower head can be
installed.
