Insure the seams on all three wall sections line up with the shower base. Make certain the walls are seated in
the caulking. Make certain the control valve stems and shower arm connections are lines up with the holes in
the wall section. When satisfied with the fit, tighten the galvanized screws. Install additional screws on 8” centers
vertically and 16” centers horizontally around the top of the wall.

Proceed with all plumbing hook ups. Water test all connections before enclosing behind the unit. Wipe away any
excess silicone caulking along all seams before it cures. Moisten a finger to smooth the caulking for a good finish.
INSTALLING THE SHOWER ROD
If the unit was ordered with the curtain rod, reinstall it from the backside using the hardware provided. Secure
the rod with panel adhesive on the backside to prevent it from turning.
WALL BOARD INSTALLATION
Typically, wallboard is installed to cover all mounting flanges. Wallboard should be held about 1/8” away from
the finished surface of the shower walls. This small gap should be caulked to create a water resistant seal along
the edge of the wallboard. Fasten the wallboard to framing with nails or screws. Finish as typical using corner
bead if required. Remove joint compound before it dries.
Do not use abrasive cleaners
