Hello everyone,
in my newly built single-family house, the topic of shower trays and their installation is coming up.
I have decided on a Kaldewei SUPERPLAN ZERO shower tray (150 cm x 100 cm x 3.2 cm, 3.7 cm with tray support) made of steel. I find a steel tray to be very robust (due to bending) and durable. I would also be interested in your opinions on this.
Primarily, however, I am concerned with the installation of this shower tray. After watching some videos, everything seems quite simple in theory. I plan to use the extra-flat tray support (this rubber around the tray) in combination with the installation box.
Current situation on the construction site:
The screed has been poured (6 cm Styrofoam, 3 cm Rolljet, and 5.5 cm anhydrite self-leveling screed + 1.5 cm tiles = 16 cm total build-up height), and I have left a recess of 152 cm x 102 cm.
My considerations for proceeding:
- First, I want to position the installation box. Since the box has a height of 10 cm, I want to glue 4 cm styrodur underneath. This way, the top edge will be at 14 cm.
- Attach edge insulation strips around the box and to the wall.
- Lay 10 cm Styrofoam on the floor.
- Lay PE foil as a vapor barrier on the Styrofoam.
- Apply 4 cm cement flowing screed HASIT 465 cement-sulfate flowing screed. This results in a build-up height of 14 cm.
- Coat the entire area with liquid waterproofing.
- Position the shower tray with soundproofing tape, sealing tape, and cut protection tape all around and silicone it.
Does the shower tray need to be fixed in any other way to hold it in position?
What do you think of this approach?
Does anyone have experience with this system?
Is sealing with liquid waterproofing sufficient?
Any further tips and suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
