I’m doing a 36" x 36" shower stall. Is it best to cut the 36" x 48" prefab pan on-site or is it recommended to have the custom pan made to those dimensions instead?

Either method will work. The Hydro Ban Shower Pans are fully waterproof. You would need to treat the cut edges with Hydro Ban Waterproofing Membrane. You can also create a customer pan here. Custom pans have a 2-3 week lead time and are non-returnable and non-refundable.

Can this be used in basement with concrete floor?

Yes, concrete floors are a suitable substrate for the shower pans.

What should I use to "glue" the tile to this product?

You could use any modified or unmodified thinset Laticrete does recommend using their thinset for warranty purposes.

Can two 48 x 48 center drain pans be connected and use extensions at both ends to reach the inside length? Or, what would a custom pan, to the aforementioned dimensions, cost?

If you have two drains in place or the ability to alter the plumbing to accommodate each pan drain, you can install a shower with your described configuration. You can order a custom pan with the exact dimensions and drain placement. Fill out the custom pan form and submit so we can obtain pricing for you. Lead time is generally 2-4 weeks for custom pans from Laticrete.

Common Questions

What is a suitable substrate for a pre-slopped shower pan?

Suitable substrates are Cement Backer Board, Concrete, Exterior Glue Plywood, Oriented Strand Board (OSB)

Should you pre-slope a shower pan?

Pre-sloping involves creating a slight slope in the subfloor or the shower base before installing the waterproofing and tile. This slope is designed to direct water towards the shower drain and prevent water from pooling or seeping into areas where it shouldn't, such as the surrounding floor or walls.

When using a 2' x 4' pre-sloped extension added to one end of a pre-sloped shower pan, do I need to use a membrane w/thinset to cover the seam or will using their adhesive & sealant in the rabbit be sufficient?

Contractors D.

You can stick with the adhesive & sealant. You do not need the membrane with thinset for this situation.

The 36x48 inch pan with the curb: does the curb add on a couple inches to the overall size? For example, if the area I have for the pan is exactly 36X48, will the curb increase the width of the pan to more than 36 inches?

Contractors D.

The curb adds an additional 3" on every size water pan. Example: 36"X48" pan will make the overall demensions to 39"X48".
