5. Install the Finished Wall Material
IMPORTANT!
If the shower receptor is adjacent to vertical ducts or chases, the shower receptor must be
surrounded with fire-rated, water-resistant wall material.
Install the wallboard with the factory edge (the paperbound edge) a minimum of 5/8
″
(15 mm)
above the finished, nailing-in flange threshold of the shower receptor.
Apply silicone sealant to the upper portion of the nailing-in flange where it will meet the
water-resistant wall material.
Ensure the front nailing-in flanges are similarly furred, and the wallboard is sealed to the nailing-in
flange.
Mud, tape, and finish the wallboard.
Seal the joints between the receptor rim and the finished wall with silicone sealant. RTV (Room
Temperature Vulcanizing) sealant is recommended.
