Step 3: Apply Waterproofing Fleece
The pre-assembled waterproofing fleece must be carefully integrated with the surrounding sealing systems of the shower area. The 10 cm width of the fleece provides ample overlap for creating a secure, watertight connection, preventing water penetration into the floor structure. Follow manufacturer guidelines for sealing compounds.

Step 4: Adjust Screed Height and Slope
The installation set is designed to accommodate screed heights between 65-90 mm. Ensure the floor has an appropriate and consistent slope towards the shower channel for efficient water drainage. A slope of 1-2% is typically recommended directly around the channel, with a gentler 0-1% for the general floor area to guide water effectively.
Pas 5: finalització de la instal·lació
Use the protective cover with the reference edge to assist in smoothing and leveling the screed surface around the channel. Once the screed is completely dry and cured, the decorative shower channel grate (which is sold separately) can be installed. Ensure the grate is properly seated and secured.
