8. Secure the Receptor
NOTE: If the unit is shimmed, make sure the length of the fasteners is sufficient to span the shims and
penetrate into the studs at least 1" (2.5 cm).
Tack the corners of the receptor into place using #6 large-head galvanized nails (not supplied) to
fasten the unit. (Figure 1)
Carefully remove the walls.
Shim the receptor as needed at each of the remaining wall studs and finish nailing the receptor into
place in the predrilled holes. (Figure 2)
9. Caulk the Receptor
Apply a 1/4" (6 mm) minimum bead of mildew resistant clear 100% silicone sealant around the
receptor where the shower walls come in contact with the receptor.
