FLOOR PREPARATION – STEP ENTRY on any floor type
1. Sweep floor free of dust
2. Provide a hole for the waste fitting to a minimum size of 150mm x
200mm, FIGURE 1, in the correct position to suit the shower base.
3. Dry fit the shower base onto the flooring to ensure it is able to be
installed level. The top of the glazing channel(s) and top edges of the
upstands must be level. The floor of the shower base must slope
towards the drain.
FLOOR PREPARATION – Timber Recess – Level Entry
1. Measure and mark the floor recess 5mm larger than the overall shower base size.
2. Provide a hole for the waste fitting to a minimum size of 150mm x 200mm, FIGURE 1, in the correct position to
suit the shower base supplied.
3. Cut and remove floorboards. Refer to the recess depth guide chart at the end of these instructions, for a guide
of the recess depth required, and trim joists to the correct level, if required. Apply extra blocking around the
perimeter of the recess and between existing floor joists. Attach trimmers beside joists, fit full flooring in
between and flush with the top of the joists. (excess flooring in diagram)
Atlantis recommends that the shower base is on site to verify the recess depth details.
4. Dry fit the shower base
into the recess to ensure
it is able to be installed
level. The top of the
glazing channel(s) and
top edges of the
upstands must be level.
The floor of the shower
base must slope
towards the drain.
FLOOR PREPARATION – Concrete Recess – Level Entry
1. Create a recess in the concrete slab 5mm larger than the overall shower base size. The recess should be a
minimum of 50mm deep. Refer to recess depth guide chart at the end of these instructions.
2. Provide a hole for the waste fitting to a minimum size of 150mm x 200mm, FIGURE 1 in the correct position to
suit the shower base supplied.
3. Use levelling compound to create a suitably deep level platform, in the recess, for the shower base.
Please refer to the recess depth guide chart at the end of these instructions for a recess depth guide. Atlantis
recommends that the shower base is on site to verify the recess depth details.
