Installing a 72 x 72 Shower Tray
NEW! GEN II Drain Video
The videos above provide an excellent general guideline for installation. The 32 x 60 installation video shows the general techniques for installing a 32 x 60 kit (video example shows offset installation, but principles for the 48 x 72 are identical). The curb installation in the video shows general tips for installing optional curb sections. You may build your own curbs and follow the same general guidelines for waterproofing as shown in the video. Some actual steps may vary or additional steps may be required depending on your specific kit. The 72 x 72 Pan Installation Video shows you how to add extension sections to the central 48 x 48 pan to create larger sizes. Your 48 x 72 kit will use one set of extensions which will be trimmed to accommodate the rectangular shape. Please examine this 48 x 72 pan .pdf to see how you would prepare a set of extensions for use in this kit. Some actual steps may vary or additional steps may be required depending on your specific kit.
