Temporary Bracing
Install temporary bracing to hold the three panels in place until
the silicone holds the panels completely in place (typically 24
hours).
IMPORTANT NOTICE
To ensure contact between the panels and walls until the
silicone sets, install temporary bracing after completing
installation. The bracing should be constructed from lengths of
2 x 4’s. Failure to brace in the manner described could keep
the panels from adhering, resulting in personal injury, as well
as water damage or other damage to floors, walls, or other
portions of your building or home.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
To prevent scratches or other damage, make sure there are
no nails or other foreign objects in the surface of the bracing
that is placed against the panel.
If the horizontal braces are fastened to the vertical braces
using nails or screws, make sure the fasteners do not
penetrate the surface of the panel. Also, to prevent possible
damage to the walls, do not apply excessive pressure to the
braces.
Corner Installation:
For corner shower wall installation use the following illustrated
bracing design.
ATTENTION:
Additional bracing may be required if the
wall panel does not make full contact to the
wall it is adhered to.
