Thank You For Choosing Kohler Company

We appreciate your commitment to Kohler quality. Please take a few minutes to review this manual before

you start installation. If you encounter any installation or performance problems, please don’t hesitate to

Company.

Tools and Materials

Before You Begin

Observe all local plumbing and building codes.

Locate the rough plumbing for the drain in accordance with the roughing-in dimensions for your

particular model.

A variety of installations are possible. These instructions show suggested installation procedures,

your particular installation may require other construction techniques.

Please read these instructions carefully to familiarize yourself with the required tools, materials, and

installation sequences.

Your shower receptor comes packaged in a single carton containing a one-piece shower receptor.

This carton will ﬁt through any standard door. You should not remove the receptor from the

package until you are ready to install it.

Unpack and inspect the shower receptor for damage. If you ﬁnd any damage, do not install the

receptor. Report the speciﬁc problem to your dealer immediately.

After inspection, return the shower receptor to the carton until you are ready to install it.

The shower receptor must be installed to an adequately supported, level subﬂoor.

Before installing the stud framing for the shower receptor, locate a 2″(5.1 cm) diameter drain pipe

that extends 3/8″(1 cm) above the subﬂoor.

Make sure the installation area is clean and free of all debris. If remodeling, remove all ﬁnished wall

material to expose the framing and remove all ﬂoor coverings to expose the subﬂoor.

Provide properly dimensioned framing.

This shower receptor is designed for an alcove installation.

The exact location of the end studs will depend on the thickness of the ﬁnished wall material.

Before You Begin (cont.)

If the unit will be adjacent to vertical ducts or chases, surround the unit with ﬁre-rated,

water-resistant wall material.

When ﬁre-rated wall material is speciﬁed, stud-opening dimensions are toward the exposed side of

the wall material.

Kohler Co. 3 1058614-2-B

Roughing-In

IMPORTANT! All dimensions are nominal. The stud opening tolerance is +1/4″(6 mm) and -0 (0 mm).

Carefully measure your ﬁxture before determining enclosure size. When a ﬁre-rated wall is speciﬁed,

dimensions are to the inside of the wall board. Some shimming between the stud frame and the ﬁxture

may be required. Dimensions given in the roughing-in information are crucial for proper installation.

Construct the framing and plumbing accurately.

NOTE: If a ﬁrewall is required, increase the roughing-in dimensions according to the thickness of the

ﬁrewall material. Stud opening dimensions must be measured toward the exposed side of the wall

material.

NOTE: If the unit will be installed against a masonry wall, make provisions for plumbing connections.

Construct a separate frame wall a minimum of 6″(15.2 cm) from the masonry wall.

1. Install the Plumbing

NOTE: Follow all local codes, standards, and regulations.

Locate rough plumbing for the drain according to the correct model’s roughing-in dimensions. Refer

to the roughing-in provided with this guide.

NOTE: If the plumbing will be located on the unﬁnished stud wall, install the supplies after the receptor

is installed.

Position the plumbing according to the roughing-in information.

Cap the supplies and check for leaks.

Install a 2″(5.1 cm) diameter drain line to extend 3/8″(1 cm) above the subﬂoor or slab. A pocket is

required in a slab construction to accommodate the drain ﬁtting.

Provide access at the back of the plumbing wall to make drain connections to the receptor.

2. Construct the Stud Framing

IMPORTANT! If a shower door will be installed, refer to the shower door installation instructions for any

special framing considerations.

NOTE: Additional support is not required for the shower receptor if the subﬂoor is plumb and level with

respect to the stud framing. If the subﬂoor is not level, shimming may be required to level the unit.

NOTE: Stud pocket tolerance is +1/4 (6 mm), -0 (-0 mm) when ﬁre-rated material wall is speciﬁed.

Dimensions are to the inside of the wallboard.

Construct 2x4 or 2x6 stud framing according to the roughing-in information for your particular

model.

NOTE: If necessary, leave one of the stud pocket walls loose until the shower receptor is moved into

position. After the receptor has been moved into position, align and fasten the remaining wall in the stud

pocket.

Provide double or triple stud framing around the opening of the stud pocket.

Verify that the stud pocket framing is square and plumb.

Verify the subﬂoor is level. Shim as necessary.

3. Prepare the Receptor

WARNING: Risk of product or property damage. Do not support the shower receptor by the rim. The

weight of the shower receptor should be supported by the bottom of the shower receptor.

CAUTION: Risk of product or property damage. If a watertight seal on the drain is not obtained,

water damage to the receptor bottom and the subﬂoor may occur.

Install the drain to the shower receptor according to the drain manufacturer’s instructions. Follow

all local building codes, standards, and regulations.

Make sure the shower receptor is level and the bottom of the shower receptor is resting on the

subﬂoor. Shim as necessary.

Clean the shower receptor to reduce the risk of surface damage, then place a clean drop cloth or

other similar material into the bottom of the shower receptor. This will ensure the unit will not

scratch during the installation process.

4. Secure the Receptor

Drill 1/8″(3 mm) holes through the nailing-in ﬂange at all stud locations. If needed, shim between

the nailing-in ﬂange and the stud to prevent cracking while drilling and to remove any gap between

the studs and the nailing-in ﬂange.

Secure the nailing-in ﬂange to the studs with screws or galvanized screws.

Attach 1/4″furring strips to the studs around the receptor.

Attach the drain to the P-trap according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Follow all local building

codes, standards, and regulations.

Install the faucet valving. Open the water supplies and check all connections for leaks.

5. Install the Finished Wall Material

IMPORTANT! If the shower receptor is adjacent to vertical ducts or chases, the shower receptor must be

surrounded with ﬁre-rated, water-resistant wall material.

Install the wallboard with the factory edge (the paperbound edge) a minimum of 5/8″(15 mm)

above the ﬁnished, nailing-in ﬂange threshold of the shower receptor.

Apply silicone sealant to the upper portion of the nailing-in ﬂange where it will meet the

water-resistant wall material.

Ensure the front nailing-in ﬂanges are similarly furred, and the wallboard is sealed to the nailing-in

ﬂange.

Mud, tape, and ﬁnish the wallboard.

Seal the joints between the receptor rim and the ﬁnished wall with silicone sealant. RTV (Room

Temperature Vulcanizing) sealant is recommended.

6. Complete the Installation

NOTE: Refer to the sealant and/or putty manufacturer’s instructions for proper application techniques.

Seal around the valving and outlets with silicone sealant or plumbers putty.

Install the shower trim and drain trim according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Install the shower door according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Install the ﬁnished ﬂoor.

Apply silicone sealant along the front edge of the receptor where it meets the ﬂoor.

7. Clean-Up

Consult the care and cleaning directions in the Homeowners Guide before cleaning the unit.

When cleaning up after installation, do not use abrasive cleansers, as they might scratch and dull

the product surface.

Remove stubborn stains, paint, or tar with turpentine or paint thinner.

Do not allow cleaners containing petroleum distillates to remain in contact with the product surfaces

for any length of time.

Remove plaster by scraping the surface with a wood edge. Do not use metal or wire tools. Use a

powder type detergent on a damp cloth to provide mild abrasive action to the residual plaster.
