Filler Boards
If an existing wall covering (i.e. tile) does not extend to a
height equal to the height of the panel, it will be necessary to
install a filler board to that height. The filler board must equal
the thickness of the existing wall covering (tile). Usually, 1/4”
masonite or similar material is adequate. If desired, the filler
board can extend from the top edge of the tile to the ceiling.

could result in water damage or other damage to floors, walls,
or other portions of your building or home.
