Before You Begin (cont.)

The shower column is supplied with toggle anchor fasteners for

installation onto a ﬁnished wall surface. The ﬁnished wall

thickness must be a minimum of 5/8″ (16 mm) and must be

adequate in strength. Two toggle anchor fasteners are required

per mounting collar.

IMPORTANT! If the supplied toggle anchor fasteners are not used

to install the shower column:

Ensure that adequate strength wall backing materials and stud

bracing are properly positioned behind the ﬁnished wall.

Obtain proper fasteners (not provided) taking into account the

type of stud bracing material and thickness of the mounting

collar, ﬁnished wall, wall backing, and stud bracing.

Fasteners must be corrosion-resistant and capable of 300 lbs (136

kg) load bearing per fastener.

A minimum of two fasteners are required per mounting collar.

Fasteners must be securely anchored into the stud bracing to

adequately support the product.

IMPORTANT! For retroﬁt/remodel installations: Check the existing

shower enclosure for adequate clearances before proceeding with the

shower column installation. Refer to the Roughing-in for the shower

column and showerhead.

Verify the distances between:

•

The ceiling and the center of the existing shower arm at the

ﬁnished wall surface.

•

The shower ﬂoor and the center of the existing shower arm at the

ﬁnished wall surface. Ensure sufficient clearance under the

showerhead.

•

The center of the existing shower arm and the center of the

mixing valve trim.
