DRY FITTING THE PANELS ON THE WALL

EACH ALCOVE STUD MUST
BE PLUMB AND SQUARE.
1a.
WALL SURFACE PREPARATION
NOTE:
For best adhesion, we suggest priming walls prior to installation.
Ensure wall surface is dry, smooth, and free of dust, soap scum, mold or other contaminants. Wipe wall
surfaces with a damp cloth and allow to dry. Wall surface must be dry before panels can be applied. En-
sure that alcove is plumb and square. (See Illustration)
1b.
ROUGH PLUMBING & FITTINGS MUST BE INSTALLED BEFORE WALLS
Turn off hot & cold water supplies. Remove faucet handles, escutcheons, filler spouts and any other
fixtures & fittings (e.g. towel bars, soap dishes, etc.).
1c.
IF YOU PLAN TO INSTALL A SHOWER DOOR
Follow manufacturer’s instructions and prepare stud wall accordingly.
2a.
Dry fit the panels starting with the 72

"
panel first and determine what corner of the shower the
Corner Panel will be installed (left or right). Place the 72
"
x 24
"
Rear Panel into the opposite corner of the
shower where the Corner Panel will be installed and use masking tape to hold the Rear Panel on the rear
wall. Mark a vertical line top to bottom at the corner edges of the panel on the rear wall. (Ref. Illustration A)
NOTE
: If any trimming is needed, measure and mark dimensions. Cut with a fine tooth Jig Saw.

Side Panel, place the panel entrance edge at the desired location on wall while
also ensuring a gap or distance no greater than 7-3/4" (197mm) exists at the panel’s back corner to the
Rear Wall. Use masking tape to hold panel in position. Mark a vertical line top to bottom on the side wall
near the corner at back edge of Side Panel to reference later. Place the 72" x 31.44" Side Panel on the
opposite side wall into the rear corner and ensure there are no gaps in the corner. Trim panel to fit if needed.
NOTE
: Verify that the gap at the rear corner can be covered by the corner panel by dry fitting.
(Ref. Illustrations C & D)
2c.
Once side panels are properly dry fitted, mark all plumbing locations where shower valves come through
the side panel. Drill holes at each location using a Hole Saw large enough to accommodate the opening
but small enough to be covered by the trim plates. (Ref. Illustration B)
