Preparation

1. Prior to installation, examine all boxes and packages for shipping damage and compare the

piece count with your packing slip. After opening all boxes and packages read this introduction

carefully. Check that all of the parts are included in the package by checking off the

components on the parts list. If the unit has been damaged, has a finishing defect, or has

missing parts, please contact our customer support department within 3 business days of the

delivery date. Please note that DreamLine

®

will not replace any damaged products or

missing parts free of charge after 3 business days or if the product has been installed.

Please contact DreamLine

®

if with any questions and please provide an order number, job

name or other proof of purchase to help identify the original order.

2. Install all of the required plumbing and drainage before installing the shower base. Use a

competent and licensed (if required by local code) plumber for all plumbing installation.

3. Shower bases must be installed by a licensed plumber. Please note that you should

consult your local building codes with questions on installation compliance standards.

Building and plumbing codes may vary by location and DreamLine

®

is not responsible for

code compliance standards for your project.

4. Make sure that prior to the installation the installation surface is leveled and solid and will be

able to support the total weight of the unit. Also make sure the walls are at right angles. While

some adjustment in leveling of the tray is possible, irregular installation surface level or

improper angle of side walls will result in serious problems for your installation. Please note

that some adjustments may be necessary during the installation process.

5. Center drain configurations are centered on the width only. See technical drawing tables

for drain locations.

6. Drain not included with this product. The drain opening is 3-3/8” in diameter and accepts a

standard 2” compression fitted drain.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Shower Base Installation - Preparation

1. Ensure that the floor and the studs

are at right angles.

Provide a 5”×5” opening in the sub-

floor for the drain.

The 2” PVC waste pipe should

extend above the surface of the

sub-floor according to the drain

installation instructions and the

height of the Shower base.

Refer to the product drawings and

tables in this installation manual for

the drain location.

2. Install the shower drain (NOT

INCLUDED) according to the

drain installation manual

(supplied with the drain).

(Fig 2)

Fig 2

3. Place the tray into the designated

position so that the Drain cutout drops

around the Drain Pipe and butt the

Shower Base up against the studs.

(Fig 3)

Lower the base over the drain pipe

and set it into place against the studs.

Fig 3

SLIMLINE SHOWER BASE manual Ver 5 Rev 9a 11/2018

16

4. Level the tray and place marks on the

studs above the upper edge of the tile

flange.

(Fig 4)

5. Mix the bedding material (Mortar,

cement-sand mix, etc.) Concrete

or plaster is not recommended.

Apply enough bedding material

to support the entire bottom of

the shower base. This will add

additional stability and prevent the

base from shifting position.

(Fig 5)

Fig 5

Level base in two directions

Mortar

Fig 4

SLIMLINE SHOWER BASE manual Ver 5 Rev 9a 11/2018

17

6. After the bedding material has been

poured and

before

it sets, place the

shower base into the position with the

drain assembly sliding over the PVC

waste pipe. It will be necessary to push

the shower base until the top of the tile

flange aligns with the marks drawn on

the studs and the front edge is

contacting the rough floor along the

entire length of the shower base. Ensure

that the base is level in all directions.

You may need to use shims to hold the

tray level until the bedding fully sets.

Remove all excess mortar.

(Fig 6)

7. Allow the bedding material to completely harden before applying weight to the bottom of the

shower base.

Install the cement board (or the wallboard) above the tile flanges and secure it to the studs.

Put the tiles (or other finishing wall material) over the cement board leaving 1/8” gap between

the bottom of the tile or wall kit and the shower base. Use caulk to fill the gap.

Product Maintenance

BASES and BACKWALLS: To ensure long lasting life for your acrylic base and/or back walls:

wipe them off after each use with a soft cloth. To clean the acrylic base or back walls use

non-abrasive sprays or cream-based cleaners. Avoid the use of aerosol spray cleaners.

Never use abrasive cleansers, metal brushes or scrapers that could scratch or dull the surface.

GLASS: To ensure long-lasting life for your glass shower products: wipe them off after each use

with a soft cloth. Rinse and wipe off the glass using either a soft cloth or a squeegee to prevent

soap buildup and water spots (Hard water can etch the surface of the glass over time if left to

dry). To prevent scratching the surface: never use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products that

contain scouring agents. Never use bristle brushes or abrasive sponges that may scratch the

surface.

HARDWARE: To ensure a long-lasting finish: wipe off the metal parts after each use with a soft

cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products containing ammonia, bleach or acid. If

accidentally used, rinse the surface as soon as possible to prevent damage to the finish

(peeling or corrosion). After cleaning the polished finishes, rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with

a soft cloth.

Clean stainless-steel surfaces at least once a week. When applying stainless steel cleaner or

polish to stainless steel hardware, work with (not across) the grain. Never use an abrasive

sponge or cloth, steel wool or wired brush as these may permanently scratch the surfaces.

NOTE: To maximize the life of your door, it is important to regularly inspect the glass

and other hardware for misalignment, proper attachment, and/or damage. Contact

DreamLine with any questions or concerns.

Product maintenance

To ensure long lasting life for your acrylic back walls, wipe them off after each use with a soft

cloth. To clean the acrylic back walls use non-abrasive sprays or cream based cleaners. Never

use abrasive cleansers, metal brushes or scrapers that could scratch or dull the surface.

Acrylic cleaning procedure:

Acrylic should be cleaned with warm water and a clean, non-abrasive cloth. If desired, a

mild, non-abrasive detergent may also be used. Use only light pressure when cleaning.

Avoid rubbing dirt or grit into the surface. Turn the cloth often and replace with a clean

cloth frequently. Dry by blotting gently with a clean, dry cloth.

DO NOT USE:

Window cleaning sprays, alcohol, kitchen abrasive compounds, or solvents (such as acetone,

gasoline, or thinners). Do not use ammonia based cleaning solutions on the acrylic as it will

damage the surface.

How do you get scratches out of Acrylic?

For light scratches, use a buffing compound such as a car wax. Use a buffer or lightly polish

the surface by hand until scratches disappear.

Preparation

1. Prior to installation, examine all boxes and packages for shipping damage and compare the piece

count with the packing slip. After opening all boxes and packages read this introduction carefully.

Check that all of the necessary parts are included in the package by checking off the components on

the “Detailed Diagram of Shower Door Components”. If the unit has been damaged, has a finishing

defect, or has missing parts, please contact our customer support department within 3 business

days of the delivery date. Please note that DreamLine

or missing parts free of charge after 3 business days or if the product has been installed.

Contact DreamLine

®

if you have any questions, and please provide an order number, job name or

other proof of purchase to help identify the original order.

2. Please note that you should consult your local building codes with questions on installation

compliance standards. Building and plumbing codes may vary by location, and DreamLine

®

is

not responsible for code compliance standards for your project and will not accept any

returns.

3. If this unit is going to be installed in a new construction, please install all of the required plumbing

and drainage before installing the shower. Use a competent and licensed (if required by local code)

plumber for all plumbing installation

4. Make sure that prior to beginning the installation, the surfaces are leveled and solid and will be

able to support the total weight of the unit. Also make sure the walls are at right angles. Irregular

installation surface level, radius corners or improper angle of side walls will result in serious

problems for your installation. Note that some adjustments and drilling will be necessary during the

installation process.

5. Protect all primary surfaces of the product during installation. Never set the glass down directly

onto a tile floor. Leave corner protectors in place until necessary to remove them. Always use a piece

of wood or cardboard to protect the bottom edge and corners of the glass prior to and during

installation.

6. This unit must be installed upon a finished threshold and against finished walls.

7. This model has 1/2” of adjustment for out-of-plumb wall conditions within the wall

profiles.

8. This model requires a minumum of 1” of flat threshold space for installation.

9. Professional installation recommended.

Product Maintenance

BASES and BACKWALLS: To ensure long-lasting life for your acrylic back walls, wipe them off

after each use with a soft cloth. To clean the acrylic back walls use non-abrasive sprays or cream

based cleaners. Avoid the use of aerosol spray cleaners. Never use abrasive cleansers, metal

brushes or scrapers that could scratch or dull the surface.

GLASS: To ensure long-lasting life for your glass shower products, wipe them off after each use

with a soft cloth. Rinse and wipe off the glass using either a soft cloth or a squeegee to prevent

soap buildup and water spots (Hard water can etch the surface of the glass over time if left to

dry). To prevent scratching the surface: never use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products that

contain scouring agents. Never use bristle brushes or abrasive sponges that may scratch the

surface.

HARDWARE: To ensure a long-lasting finish, wipe off the metal parts after each use with a soft

cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products containing ammonia, bleach or acid. If

accidentally used, rinse the surface as soon as possible to prevent damage to the finish (peeling

or corrosion). After cleaning the polished finishes, rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft

cloth.

Clean stainless steel surfaces at least once a week. When applying stainless steel cleaner or

polish to stainless steel hardware, work with (not across) the grain. Never use an abrasive

sponge or cloth, steel wool or wired brush as these may permanently scratch the surfaces.

NOTE: To maximize the life of your door, it is important to regularly inspect

the glass and all hardware for misalignment, proper attachment, and/or

damage. Contact DreamLine

®

with any questions or concerns.

DreamLine

shower doors and enclosures are designed not to leak when

installed properly and the flow of water is not pointed directly at the vinyl

seals.
