Configuración e instalación

Proper installation is crucial for the longevity and performance of your Tile Redi shower pan. Follow these steps carefully to ensure a successful setup.

1. Preparación previa a la instalación

Before beginning installation, ensure your shower pan subfloor is level, and all walls are plumb and square. Verify that the bore hole for the drain is a 6-inch diameter opening and is correctly located according to your specific pan's measurements. For the T3642L-SCDNBVZ model, the drain center should be 15 inches off the back wall and 6 inches off the side wall (closest to the drain).

2. Shower Dry-Fit

To ensure a perfect fit, dry-fit your shower pan into the space. Place the pan against the corner, ensuring it touches all walls. Verify that it is perfectly level on the floor with no movement or bulge. The drain hub should fit precisely inside the bore hole.

3. Mortar Preparation

Prepare your mortar mix. We recommend using a Type N or Type S mortar mix, which are sand-based and free of rocks or pebbles that could hinder proper pan seating. Ensure the mortar is wet and loose enough to allow the pan to easily sink into the mortar bed. For exact pan measurements and recommended thinsets, refer to the detailed installation instructions provided with your product.

4. Laying Mortar

Spread the mixed mortar evenly across the subfloor within the shower stall. Use a finishing trowel to achieve a smooth texture. Stay approximately one inch off the perimeter of the shower framing to ensure mortar remains within the rib foundation underneath the pan. Extend the mortar all the way up to the bore hole. Use a depth gauge to verify the mortar bed is at the required depth (e.g., 1 inch for this model).

5. Instalación de la bandeja

Apply PVC glue to the drain hub. Carefully place the pan against the wall, lowering it evenly into the mortar bed. Apply downward pressure first at the drain, as this is the lowest point of the pan. Confirm the waste line pipe is connected by inserting it into the hub. Shimmy the pan left to right or front to back to allow it to fully recess into the mortar bed. DO NOT STEP INTO THE PAN.

Using a level, ensure the pan is level left to right and front to back along the splash walls and along the curb. Do not use the inside of the pan as an indicator, as it is pre-pitched. Pack any gaps under the curb with excess mortar. Once the pan is set and leveled, you can secure it into place by setting screws above the splash walls into the framing on each corner. NEVER PUNCTURE THE PAN OR SCREW THROUGH THE PAN SPLASH WALL. This is only to hold it in place while the mortar dries.

Allow the pan to set and dry for 24 hours before proceeding. After drying, install the flashing, then the backer board, and finally, install your chosen tile directly onto the pan surface.

Operación y uso

The Tile Redi shower pan is designed for both commercial and residential use. Once properly installed and tiled, the pre-pitched surface ensures efficient water drainage towards the integrated drain. Regular use will not compromise the integrity of the pan when installed according to these instructions.

Mantenimiento

To maintain your Tile Redi shower pan and ensure its longevity, regular cleaning of the tiled surface and drain grate is recommended. Use non-abrasive cleaners suitable for your chosen tile and grout. Periodically check the drain grate for any debris that might impede water flow and clean as necessary.

Solución de problemas

Most issues with shower pans arise from improper installation. If you encounter problems such as water pooling or leaks, review the installation steps carefully. Ensure the subfloor was level, walls were plumb and square, and the mortar bed was applied correctly and allowed to dry completely. Verify that the drain connection is secure and free of obstructions. If issues persist, consult a qualified plumbing professional.
