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.
This shower receptor is designed for an alcove installation. These instructions show suggested
installation procedures for an alcove installation. Your particular installation may require other
construction techniques.
Provide properly dimensioned framing for the stud pocket.
Your shower receptor comes packaged in a single carton containing a one-piece shower receptor and
a removable cover to conceal the drain. 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 components for damage. If you find any damage, do not install the receptor.
Report the specific problem to your dealer immediately. After inspection, return the components to
the carton until you are ready to install it.
The shower receptor must be installed to an adequately supported and level subfloor.
Make sure the installation area is clean and free of all debris. If remodeling, remove all finished wall
material to expose the stud wall/framing and remove all floor coverings to expose the subfloor.
Consult all applicable instructions for accessories and shower doors before installing.
The exact location of the end studs will depend on the thickness of the finished wall material.
If the unit will be adjacent to vertical ducts or wiring, 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. reserves the right to make revisions in the design of products without notice, as specified
