PRE-INSTALLATION NOTE
It is recommended installa on prac ce to check the edge of the
base into the wall by the width of the ling flange in order to
achieve a leak-free junc on with the wall cladding material (see
diagram 'A')
TIMBER FLOOR
1. Floor boards or sheet flooring must cover the en re underside of
the base. Cut a hole for waste no greater than 200 x 200mm.
Note: If renova ng, ensure the floor is structurally sound.
Replace the floor if necessary.
2. Spread a 10mm min. thick mortar bed of 4:1 Washed Sand:
Cement over the area where base is to be installed then trowel
off level. Alterna vely spread a cement-based le adhesive on
the floor using a 12mm notched trowel.
Ensure the total base area is fully supported.
Do not use silicone and/or liquid nails type adhesive to install
base.
3. Lay the shower base on the prepared bed and use a spirit level to
ensure the base is level both side to side and front to rear.
This will allow the base to drain properly as it has an inbuilt fall to
the waste outlet.
4. At this point it is impera ve to check that water drains to the
waste outlet prior to lining the shower walls. Failure to do so is
a breach of warranty. (see diagram 'D')
CONCRETE SLAB
1. Any boxed opening in the slab to accommodate the waste must
not exceed 300mm in width beneath the shower base.
2. Spread a 10mm min. thick mortar bed of 4:1 Washed Sand:
Cement over the area where base is to be installed then trowel
off level. Alterna vely spread a cement-based le adhesive on
the floor using a 12mm notched trowel.
Ensure the total base area is fully supported.
Do not use silicone and/or liquid nails type adhesive to install
base.
3. Lay the shower base on the prepared bed and use a spirit level to
ensure the base is level both side to side and front to rear. This
will allow the base to drain properly as it has an inbuilt fall to the
waste outlet.
4. At this point it is impera ve to check that water drains to the
waste outlet prior to lining the shower walls. Failure to do so is
a breach of warranty. (see diagram 'D')
5. Backfill the opening in the slab with a 4:1 Washed Sand: Cement
mix ensuring the mortar is packed ghtly around the waste outlet
and all the way back into the boxed sec on of the slab and up to
the underside of the base to give maximum support.
Note: Where required by regula on plas c pipe and fi ngs may
need to be lagged prior to backfilling.
SMARTPAN/SMARTWASTE
When the installa on uses these products as the waste collectors
keep the lid/cover on the fi ng to provide adequate support for
the base.
