Pre-Pitch Standard Installation Kit

A:  Just use goof proof showers. Home Depot carries all their products. Go to YouTube and look for Mark E. Industries. It will show you how to build a shover.

A:  Quarter inch per foot.

A:  the float sticks have a 1/4" pitch built in them and is code compliant.

A:  I modified my order and added a pickup person very simple Or call the store and tell them

A:  That's not a question I can answer you need to get in touch with HD'

A:  I’m not really sure we used this to get the perfect pitch for drainage because we were making the pan using the cement mix, it’s not easy but worth the time! If you have a pan I would think it was prefabbed to have the correct pitch, I had a prefabbed pan break so I wanted to stay clear of that.

A:  Yes that is what it is designed to do to get the pitch correct

A:  Yes

A:  No it goes below the pan liner set in mortar

A:  When using a vinyl or roll-on liner a Pre-Pitch is needed. Pre Pitch does the mud bed under the liner to direct the moisture which collects in the liner to the weep holes around the drain and is code required. The reason it is code is it will draw the moisture by gravity away from the walls to avoid wicking up the walls and causing mildew and mold problems. Quick Pitch does the mud bed inside the liner which you install your tile on. Won't Pre-Pitch and Quick Pitch together double the pitch to ½ inch? No. The Quick Pitch Center Ring rests on top of the flange bolts of the drain which raises the system up to allow for water to flow to the weep holes and compensate for the Pre-Pitch eliminating the doubling of the pitch. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

A:  No. This is to get proper pitch on the floor before putting down a liner

A:  Any size you just have to purchase extensions if you make it bigger than the standard kit

A:  I have a large walk-in shower it provides the right pitch

A:  Don’t remember the exact size, but I did a 5’ by 30” and needed the extensions for the long sides. They sell them separately. Super easy install with these though. Takes out all the guesswork.

A:  I did not use this for a shower floor pan, I used this to provide a proper and uniform pitch on shower curb, bench seat and niches. It worked wonderfully, all water rolls off the "flat" surfaces and into the shower pan promoting quick drying times. Highly recommended if building your own design.

A:  I used Pre-Pitch to do my 6’ x 4’ shower pan. It’s great! I’d use it again if I had another project.

A:  The Float sticks are 3 ft. long and that kit will do a 3x5 shower compartment with a centered drain. There are extended float sticks available Follow the link to figure the kits needed for your shower. http://www.markeindustries.com/pdf/resources/Estimator_Vinyl_Chloraloy_Roll-On.pdf
