You might not like it, but this what peak male athleticism looks like.
Me and my husband installed one in our spare bathroom yesterday . Followed the directions and today it’s solid as a rock! Thank you so much. I will recommend this to everyone I know!!
Great to hear!
I was a bit worried about doing the mortar part of the installation; thanks for posting this.
how do you install the drain connection if you do not have access from below?????
It means you have to get the drain pipe lined up precisely with the hole in shower pan BEFORE you lay down the mortar. So typically you do this before laying down the floor on a new install, but if you're upgrading your shower and the new pan does not align with the old drain, then you'll need to access the drain piping (typically by removing sections of the floor which you'll need to replace later). I would not use the method shown in this video for creating the necessary mortar bed.
We really need one that doesn’t require the mortar mess
Based on their most recent video, they have one. The custom and commercial ones are flat bottom, set in thinset, based on the new video
If so how many 80lbs bags did it take?
Amateur here ... not a pro. I might have added some foam blocks between the studs and a temporary curb to sort of 'contain' the mud, but it looks like it didn't flow off the pad the way I thought it would. Nice!
What was the size of pan 72"×36" ?
What is the black sheeting you are putting down onto the plywood before installing the mortar?
It's a layer of black tar paper on the subfloor.
@TileRedi_US I have a question re: your instructions.
My maximum rib depth is 2" at the end away from the drain. Instructions say mortar bed should be max depth (2") minus 1/2". Question is, should the mortar depth be 1 1/2" all the way to the drain, or should the mortar bed be sloped to match the rib depth minus 1/2" all the way to the drain?
Near the drain, the ribs are only 1/2" deep, so a 1 1/2" mortar bed won't allow for the pan to set level.
The mortar bed should be ½ inch less than the deepest rib under the entire pan except for under the drain, staying 1 inch away from the side walls. Only put ½ inch of mortar under the drain where the ribs are shallow (from the front of the drain to the wall). Feel free to call us if you have additional questions: 954.323.0125 ext. 212.
Is it mortar mix or what mix are you using I ordered a shower pan and am ready to install but I don’t know what you’re using thanks in advance
Type N or Type S Mortar needs to be used to set the pan.
What kind of mortar mix is it I can’t tell please name what kind you’re using.
Type N or Type S Mortar needs to be used to set the pan.
Are the screws going above the pan to temporarily hold it in place?
Yes, they should be screwed above the splash wall and not through the pan. The idea behind this is to hold in place so the pan will not shift as the mortar cures.
why is the tar paper needed? can't you use a damp sponge on the plywood before setting the mortar or would the plywood absorb too much water regardless?
Roofing paper is recommended so that the subfloor doesn’t absorb moisture from the mortar bed.
@@TileRedi_USIt is also a good idea to decouple the shower pan from the floor. Tiny movements induced by thermal stress and flexing are relieved by decoupling the subfloor from the mortar. Plus, should you ever need or desire to replace your shower, a decoupling layer will make replacement much simpler.
So, I watched the video and noticed that there seems to be a black, thick substance before the cement steps. Do you think it could be the shower pan liner?
It's a black tar paper used on the subfloor.
@@TileRedi_USwhat is the purpose of doing that?
@@midwest9757 To prevent the wood subfloor from absorbing all the moisture from the mortar.
@midwest9757 A vapor barrier to separate the moisture from the mortar bed and the wood subfloor
@@midwest9757it keeps the water from the mortar from soaking into the subfloor and causing the mortar to dry too fast and not cure properly.
That’s a big step into the shower
Our curbs are usually 4.5" high. If you prefer a zero entry shower pan we also offer our Barrier Free pans. We can also accommodate custom curb heights if desired using our Redi Your Way shower pans.
Um, this is the simple part. How about connecting the drain that would be stubbed through the floor?
It's not difficult. You can view TileCoach's video on the drain connection here: th-cam.com/users/shorts4yoJbod1mUE?si=lAtRdiCbSLYrzUTx
I see the two bags i got wont be nearly enough
sorry but i dont see a 20 minute install. i see two guys with all pmaterials prepped and stocked. at bare minimum its labor x2 for time. decent video though. did you charge 20 minutes for the install or how did you work your labor ticket?
What size drain?
Our drain hub fits into a standard 2" drain pipe.
So tile redi first then backer board / cement board?
Yes, pan first then backer board per the instructions. The outer edge of the pan is .5” to accommodate the backer board, then your tile will go over both seamlessly.
Yes, your wall boards will go mounted on the pan splash wall.
Now, what goes on the walls?
We've recently launched our new product Redi Wall which are waterproof wall boards that sit on the shower pan splash walls.
Why such a large step to get into the shower seems like too much
The height of our standard shower pans curbs are 4.5" high. Zero entry pans can be found on our website under Barrier Free shower pans. We can also accommodate any desired curb height with our custom Redi Your Way pans.
This this is a really BAD video. There is no audio commentary and no captions so much of the activity is just puzzling. For example is the mortar bed supposed to be flat or sloped. The written instructions that come with a product are confusing on that point and a silent movie of 2 guys in hurry doesn't provide any answers
Thanks for your feedback. This video was posted on TH-cam to simply provide some backup to our statement that a shower pan can be installed in 20 minutes. We have our other installation videos that provide complete audio commentary with tips along the way for proper installation. We apologize if this video caused some confusion, the general idea was to show the entire process from beginning to end.
