FINISHING WALLS, DECKS AND PODIUMS
Now that you have installed and tested your bath and its
systems, the following pointers will help you achieve a profes-
sional looking and watertight finish:
√ Fig. 19, shows how the finishing materials should be installed
relative to the tiling flange.
√ The tiling flange does not replace caulking. Always caulk your
bath using good quality
, bathroom g
rade (mildew resistant)
silicone caulk.
√
Fig. 20, shows how the finishing materials should be installed
relative to the bath lip on a podium or deck installation.
√ All 90
0
angles including those between the walls, the podium
and the deck should be sealed with silicone caulk
(see fig 21).
OPTIONAL BA
TH SKIRT INSTALLATION
Optional bath skirts are available for many Neptune baths. There
are two general types, fixed height aprons such as those for
Helena and Daphne baths and adjustable height skirts such as
those for the Ariane, Orphee and Venus baths.
All skirts are
designed shorter than the bath by a 1/2” on either side. This
is to allow for removal of the skirt after the walls have been
finished.
Follow the instructions that match your type of skirt:
