Preparatory actions

Despite the general principle of the installation of pallets, some models meet their specificity. Therefore, the installation begins with the study of the attached instruction and inspection of the configuration of the plumbing device. It is possible that individual details will have to be purchased, as often happens in budget devices. Even before purchasing the product, free space and sewage drain are measured. With a pipe height of more than 70 mm from the floor, it is necessary to buy a model with high sides or construct a podium under a low shower tray.

  • Pistol for sealant;
  • Sealant plumbing;
  • Waterproofing tape;
  • Gloves.

When installing a cheap Chinese pallet, experts advise specialists to replace "native" fittings, tubes and siphon on high-quality materials.

Preparation of installation location

The surface of the floor is purified from old glue and garbage, sweeping and dried. Check the walls with a carbon on irregularity - the pallet will not rise even if the angle in the installation site is indirect. When the bathroom finishes has not yet been produced, the walls are far from the plaster. Wide slots between the finished lining and the edges of the pallet are closed by overlays.

Orientation in place

Printing legs and naked siphon, the shower tray "pretend from the place." Making sure it is sufficiently dense placement, determine which components require fitting. Sometimes you have to trim the discharge pipe to go to the sewer farm. In some cases, the siphon from the kit may not fit at all, and it will be necessary to acquire another.

Slum Organization

There are two options for connecting plum elements:

  • Using a short fitting, fixed to the exhaust bottom of the nozzle and inserted into the sewer sewage through the cuff.

Installing a shower pallet

Having understood with the drain, the pallet is placed on the spot:

  1. Rotating adjusting nuts on the legs, exhibit the height of the edge and horizontal level.
  2. Small surface irregularities can be compensated using a piece of thin "polyplex" for lining.
  3. On the wall mark and drill holes for clamps.
  4. Having scored a dowel with a diameter of 8 mm in them, screw fasteners.
  5. Connect the lower and top of the siphon.
  6. Seal silicone joints along walls and mounting holes.

Waving to dry the sealing composition, test the system and are convinced of the absence of leaks.

As can be seen, it will use skills to work with plumbing for self installing the pallet. After the installation is completed, it is processed to fix the rest of the elements. shower Cabin.
