STEP 1
The
photo 1
shows you how to begin your
project by installing the 2" X 6". No nail or
screw should perforate the tank. This would
void warranty.
STEP 2
The drainage of a bath or a shower must be
connected to the top portion of the tank to
prevent a possible back flow of sewage water to
the bath or shower. It is required, as per
photo 2
,
to install the second row of 2" X 6" to receive the
bath or shower. Please install a gravity drainage
pipe and a "P" trap in accordance with your
local plumbing code. A vent line is also required
for each device connected to the tank.
STEP 3
The
photo 3
demonstrates that a slope of
(1/4" per foot) is required for gravity to flow
through the tank.
STEP 4
The
photo 4
illustrates the vent pipe of the
shower base and the drainage pipe of the sink,
coming from the left side of the tank.
STEP 5
The next step consists in covering the tank.
A 3/8" plywood on all floor area except for the
tank. Because 2" X 6" boards are generally a
5 1/2" in height, it will be necessary to adjust
to position the top of the tank 3/8" higher than
2" X 6". In order to do this, we suggest to slide
a piece of 3/8" plywood under the base to
highten the top of the tank as per the
photos
5 and 6
.
However, the thickness of this piece can
be adjusted to the correct height of the
2" X 6", in reference to the tank, so that the final
result allow a perfect level of the sub floor using
only one 3/8" plywood on the tank and a total
of 3/4" of plywood for the rest of the floor area
(

).
STEP 6
Some 2" X 4" can be installed on each side of the
higher section of the tank to hold the gypsum
board to finish the wall (
Photos 8, 9 and 10
).
