Hi everyone,
Had a last minute change of plans to my shower installation and I’m now going to be installing a kohler shower base. Unlike the shower I was previously planning on installing which required a level mortar base for the shower to rest on, this calls for 1” - 5” mounds of mortar under the 4 shower base feet to rest on. If I’m understanding this correctly only 4 points of the shower base will be making contact with the floor which seems like it would cause issues with the base flexing. I’ve only ever installed a tub, so maybe this is common for showers. Can anyone clarify if I’m understanding this clearly? Thanks for your help!
