Check the roughing-in and room dimensions to provide
adequate available space for the bath unit.
One-piece shower modules are too large to fit through
standard door openings. Therefore, the multi-piece
modules are designed to be separated into sections for
moving into the installation area. Once near the
installation area, reassemble the module and position it
within the installation area framework prior to completion
of the framing.
