Neo Angle Shower System Installation Guide for Basic & Hinged Packages
Congratulations on the purchase of your new shower package. This guide will give you
the instructions on the installation of your new shower.
Sistine Stone showers are ideal for an experienced "DIYer". Please read through this entire installation
guide before beginning your installation. If you feel you can not confidently install this shower by yourself
hire a licensed contractor, handyman, or professional installer that can do it for you. Installation time
may vary depending on your experience, complexity of shower, and "Pre-Install Prep Work" which may
include: plumbing and/or drain relocation, bathroom demolition, and squaring up studs and floor.
Watch our Installation and Product Videos on americanbathfactory.com/pages/videos
Prior to demolition, scheduling your installer, or building your shower, double check that you have all the
parts from the factory. Some applications may require a licensed plumber or contractor. Do not use any
product spec sheets to begin installation before receiving product. These spec sheets are for reference
only. Use actual product measurements only. The diagrams throughout this guide illustrate a 42" x 42"
shower with a hinged door. Depending on the size of the shower purchased, actual parts may vary in
size and look from the diagrams shown.
Our goal is to help you achieve a quick and successful shower installation.
See the clock in each section for estimated installation time.
