Thank you for selecting American Standard – the benchmark of fine quality for over 100 years.

Shower Base.
If your specific installation does not include a Passage Shower Base, you will need to adjust the width of your
shower alcove to 59-1/4"
(1505 mm) to ensure correct fit with installed substrate. (see Illustration 1)

BEFORE YOU BEGIN....
Local building codes vary by location. Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Unpack your new shower walls and inspect them carefully for damage. Verify that the walls are the correct size for your installation.
NOTE: Take extra care in handling the front surfaces of the walls. Use only non-abrasive cloths to avoid scratching.
STEP 1: PREPARATION
Do not install directly to studs.
Passage Shower Walls must be installed over a solid, water resistant substrate such as greenboard.
If alcove opening is larger than rough-in opening (see Illustration 1) there will be a visible gap between
rear corners. Fir-out studding if necessary before installing substrate to provide correct alcove opening for
panels. Ensure alcove is plumb and square.
1) ROUGH PLUMBING & FITTINGS MUST
BE INSTALLED BEFORE WALLS
2) WALL SURFACE PREPARATION
Ensure wall surface is dry, smooth, and free of dust, soap
scum, mold or other contaminants. Wipe wall surfaces
with a damp cloth and allow to dry.
TIP: Priming wall substrate improves shower
wall adhesion. Wall surface must be dry before
panels can be applied.
NOTE: IF YOU PLAN TO INSTALL A SHOWER DOOR
Follow manufacturer’s instructions and prepare
stud wall accordingly.

STEP 2: INSTALLING REAR WALL PANELS
1) Starting with the bottom rear panel, dry fit bottom to top
with the exposed Lap Joint facing you. Keep a 1/8" (3mm)
gap above shower base. (Illustration 2)
Hold rear panel in place and mark a horizontal line across
top edge of rear panel. Trim rear panels if needed to fit
within alcove area.
Trimming Panels:
a) Measure shower enclosure.
b) Apply masking tape to approximate cut area on the tile
finished side to prevent chipping and protect surface.
c) Transfer measurement to panel.
d) Using a jigsaw with a fine tooth blade, cut along line on
finished tile side. Ensure a new blade is used.
NOTE: Install one panel at a time.
2) Wipe all panels and walls with a damp cloth to remove any
dust or debris and allow to fully dry.
3) Starting with the bottom rear back panel first, apply 1/4"
(6mm) bead of adhesive on the substrate in evenly spaced
vertical strips every 6" (152mm) for each panel top to
bottom. (Illustration 3)
Apply one row of adhesive horizontally to the top and
bottom edges of the substrate. (Illustration 3) Also apply
waterproof construction adhesive to the Lap Joint of both
bottom and top panels. (Illustration 2)
Wipe off excess adhesive with a water dampened rag.
4) Move bottom rear panel onto the wall keeping a space of
approximately 1/8" (3mm) off the surface of the shower
base. Press panel firmly over entire surface to ensure firm
contact of panel to adhesive on wall.
5) Place top rear panel in place on rear wall as in steps above.
TIP: Suction cups will aid in the handling and
installation of the shower wall panels.

tub and tile sealant to all corners, seams between panels
and gaps between bottom panels and shower base.
(Illustration 6)
NOTE: Wipe any excess adhesive from the panel
with water dampened rag.
Allow 24 hours for the sealant to dry before use.

STEP 3: INSTALLING SIDE WALL PANELS
1) Orient side panel to match subway tile design
of top rear panel.
2) Align grout lines of side panels with rear wall panel
grout lines. Trim side panels if needed to fit within alcove
area. (Illustration 4)
Trim or cut from bottom edge of side panels so that the
top edge of the panels are level with the top edge of
the back panels.
Tri mming Panels:
a) Measure shower enclosure.
b) Apply masking tape to approximate cut area on the tile
finished side to prevent chipping and protect surface.
c) Transfer measurement to panel.
d) Using a jigsaw with a fine tooth blade, cut along line on
finished tile side. Ensure a new blade is used.
3) Once both side panels are properly dry fitted, mark all
panels and trim as needed:
a) Apply tape to approximate location
b) Mark all plumbing locations
c) Drill holes at each location using hole saws large enough
to accomomdate the opening but small enough to be
covered by the trim plates. (Illustration 5)
NOTE: Drill from nished tile side.
Do not use wood/paddle bits or grit hole saws as
they will chip.
4) Wipe panels and walls with a damp cloth to remove any
dust or debris. Allow to fully dry.
5) Apply 1/4" (6mm) bead of adhesive on the substrate in
evenly spaced vertical strips every 6" (152mm) for each
panel, top to bottom. (Illustration 3) Apply one row of
adhesive horizontally to the top and bottom edges of the
substrate. (Illustration 3) Wipe off excess adhesive with
a water dampened rag.
6) Repeat on second wall panel.
