Prepare the Wall Surrounds
For Baths with Wall Surrounds Only
Prepare the Plumbing End Wall
NOTE: Holes for the mixing valve, shower, and spout must be cut into the plumbing
end wall.
Refer to the trim manufacturer’s instructions for necessary hole sizes. Verify that
any escutcheon, flange, or cover plate is large enough to cover the hole for the
component.
Lay out and mark the centerline location for the mixing valve, shower, and spout
on the back side of the end wall (1).
Drill 1/4
″ (6 mm) pilot holes at the marked locations from the back side of the
end wall (2).
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Failure to follow directions regarding your
blade’s cutting direction may damage the plumbing end wall finish. Cut the
holes from the front side of the wall for: hole saws, rotary tools, hand-held
jigsaws, or other saws with a blade that cuts on the push stroke. Cut the holes
from the back side of the wall for other reciprocating saws with a blade that
cuts on the pull stroke.
Carefully cut the fitting holes to the correct diameter (3). Refer to the trim
manufacturer’s instructions for proper diameter.
Carefully clean any debris from the bath to reduce the risk of surface damage.

IMPORTANT! Do not install accessories that require backing or support. Installations
that require drilling into the wall surrounds are not recommended. Such installation
could void the warranty.
Refer to the accessory manufacturer’s instructions for proper installation.
If drilling is required, mark and drill the mounting locations for your accessory on
the back side of the wall. Do not secure the accessory at this time.
