Description
This 2-foot section of dense polystyrene can serve as the structure for a tiled shower curb. This curb works with a variety of tile shower waterproofing systems and membranes. It is constructed of durable, lightweight material that can be easily cut down to a desired size. A v-groove runs the entire length of the bottom which will create a strong dovetail hold with the cured thinset that adheres the curb to the subfloor.

Customer Questions & Answers
Shower Kits has 14 Questions and Answers.
Why is modified thinset better for my installation?
Modified thinsets are stronger once cured. Most have additional anti-crack features, and better initial tack/grab (AKA less “slump”). They also are required for use with porcelain and glass tile.
Should I install a traditional mud kit (drypack mortar and PVC liner / mortar and membrane) or use a pre-formed foam pan?
Pre-formed pans are easily modifiable and easy to install on any substrate. They are great for DIY, as well as for a fast and clean installation by a professional. Drypack kits do not work well for tiles smaller than 2" x 2" without additional work.
What is the typical operating cost of a TempZone Shower floor heating system?
The actual cost of operating your floor heating system will vary depending upon a number of factors including the cost of electricity in your area and the length of time you run your system. The WarmlyYours TempZone™ Shower Floor Heating Mat, for example, uses 15 watts per square foot. Based on a national average electricity rate of $.10/kW/hr, the approximate operating cost of an average bathroom using this system, measuring 4' x 4' would be as little as 4 cents a day. This cost is based on running your system a full 8 hours per day. Try our Operating Cost Calculator for a quick estimate.

I liked the WarmlyYours shower kit it is straight forward and easy to use. Takes one day to get your shower prepped for tile.
