Secure the Wall Surrounds

CAUTION: Risk of property damage.

Wall surrounds must rest within 1/32

″ (1

mm) (the thickness of a credit card) from the bath rim to ensure proper water
management and to prevent leakage.

Ensure that the wall surrounds are properly secured and seated on the bath. The

front edges of the end walls must be flush with the front edge of the bath. If a gap

exists, pull the end walls slightly forward.
The width of the back wall is narrower in the back corner. Add furring strips as

needed to support the drywall. If furring strips are not used, drywall installation

may be more difficult.

CAUTION: Risk of product or property damage.

If using non-tapered flathead

screws rather than roofing nails, do not overtighten the screws. Excessive
tightening can damage the wall flange.

Starting from the bottom of the end walls and working up, secure the end walls to

the studs approximately every 12

″ (30.5 cm). If roofing nails are used, nail through

the dimples on the wall flanges. If using non-tapered flathead screws, fasten the

screws through the dimples on the wall flanges. Do not overtighten the

non-tapered flathead screws.

NOTE:

Leave a 1/8

″ (3 mm) gap between the edge of the wall surround and the

finished wall material. When sealed, this gap will reduce the possibility of water

seeping into the wall material.
