? 1. Why no flashing on the shower pan wall like it shows in the Tile Redi instructions on their website? So just a but joint with no flashing on the shower pan wall is acceptable? The pan you installed doesn’t have the deep grooves underneath that require approx a. 1-1/2” of mortar. Have you changed the design of the pans? Your website still shows the need for a approx 1-1/2 inch motor bed required instead of an application of thinset that was done in this demo.
The flashing is an option, in this case we did not use it and only used the MS Polymer (Redi Sealant). Used according to the instructions will also provide a waterproof seal on the splashwall. You are correct, the shower pan installed is a different pan than you may have used in the past or see on our website. It is a flat bottom shower pan (Pro Line) similar to our custom pans and do not need to have the mortar installation filling up the ribs. This is currently available to the commercial market in limited sizes.
We wanted to find an even easier way to install our shower pans. This is a new design similar to that of our custom pans (flat on the bottom). Our ribbed pans are still available on our website and most retailers.
You are correct, we will be making a change to that since many contractors and DIY'ers have shown us that it helps in the installation process and does not harm the pan.

How can I find an experienced installer in Dallas?
So why the NEW FLAT bottoms? Why did they switch from the Pans that were webbed?

Similar to flat earth eh?
The instructions read do not step in pan after setting?

@@TileRedi_US thank you for sending this.
i do not find the flat bottom on your website
They are not available for sale on our website just yet. We are launching them in the commercial market first.
What type of thinset
The installation instructions will provide you with the recommended thinsets. They differ for the wall and the pan.
