Finally installed shower tray! Top tip for anyone using tray with built in levelling screws, make sure base is level. I screwed a few pieces of...
Great update Andy, detailed info also, will be very helpful to lots of people I'm sure.
I'll leave a copy of the instructions under the tray so he'll see how fiddly the self-levelling screws are, he'll understand
Just wanted to give update. Had a mental block with this and only returned to it yesterday. As the base(marine ply) wasn't level, I had to pack...
Sounds like good advice to me Rob, thank you. After a load of faffing around, I realised the base/plinth isn't straight, rookie mistake! Gonna...
And hey, I like a nice radox bath so the missus will just have to clean it more often or stop moaning about the mould. :)
I see what you mean, depends on the built in fall I guess. The instruction do say to clean it regularly with something, can't remember what.
It's a lovely tray as it goes. Its got like a rippled surface for non slip effect. Looks the business to me, but then I'm no plumber and ain't...
I know, that's what I wanted to reply with but I'm too polite. He was the sales guy who had had some sort of presentation from the manufacturer as...
Thank you Rob, My thoughts exactly. The tray is sitting on a marine ply, I guess it's softwood, I'm not sure TBH. I can't bring myself to fit...

Thank you again Rob. Your instructions make total sense. I did go a bit OTT with the adhesive . It was a 20kg bag and was so afraid of running...
Hi, I'm putting this down to experience and starting again. Shower tray came up worryingly easy, will prime underside of tray next time. The tile...
Non-progress update. After fitting shower tray the other day, I recall the bubble showing a bow in the middle of tray. I thought this was normal...
OK, thank you all. Best get Multi tool out ready for tomorrow. Can barely get under the tray so this will be a Saturday challenge ♂️. I'll post...
Could I get a longer threaded middle bit instead as McAlpine do them? :...
Oh, right, I see. So there should be no support needed under the waste area? So I can cut away so the trap butts up to the underside of tray,...
I just had a look at a Mcalpine trap I bought, when screwed in 2 turns there's 20mm available thread, whereas the iflow one has barely 13mm...
I must be missing something, the middle bit is just about biting into thread here and it's over 20mm which should work. EDIT: Sorry, the thread...
