It looked like the bottom of the “white” pan was mostly flat. Other of your “white” pans I’ve seen on KZbin appeared to have ridged bottoms throughout, and require a mortar bed. Are all “white” pans now flat on the bottom, and can be installed with thin set as shown here?

These new flat bottom pans are a new shower pan that we are introducing to the market early 2025. We are very excited to introduce an even easier way to install a shower pan without to worry about any seams to seal or floor to pitch. Stay tuned!

man, they keep coming up with silly ways to charge clients more money. Yikes, just looked up the price. 250 and up. I would not recommend using that upstairs or on a raised foundation. Homes never stop settling and it will crack that pan over time if its not on concrete. Hotmop is king.

TileRedi may be a great product in theory, but the documentation and customer support and how to really install and blend with other products (which they should have in their line) is awful. I don't think they really know their own product. Isaac is awesome and I feel I'll have to spend $200 bucks to get a consultation just to use their system. Want to use the barrier free, curbless. Really try and find good install info on this product. Please let me know if I've missed it somewhere.

I have a basement shower drain that is currently flush with the floor. Will I need to drill and expose this drain pipe to install a custom shower pan?
@TileRedi_US4 ай бұрын
Yes, you will need to make a 6in diameter cut in the slab for the pan to sit flush. The hub of the drain is 5.5 inches in diameter and sits 2 inches below the floor. Please call our tech support team if you have additional questions. 954.323.0125 ext. 212

It's to make sure that your entire shower stall is level and plumb. The pan is the first step in the installation and the walls follow. If you now need to shim the walls to make them plumb, it's best to do before the pan is in.

These walls are tough I did some tests before installing. I attached a scrap piece to a 2x4 using one deck screw. We could not physically pull the board off unlike go board and cement boards. Also, we glued a butt joint together using scrap and the redi sealant and could not pull them apart after it set. Very tough and easy to work with.

Love to buy this product for my basement shower, but I noticed that the drain protrudes below the bottom which would be the floor line; meaning that (as it seems) I would need to cut into concrete to accommodate the drain, correct? I hate to think I need to build a platform. Please advise as I called your tech-support today and they told me that this would work for my basement, but there is no product evidence I can find that these can be installed in basements without floor modification or a platform.

I've done 2 in my career and they are the best. I wish the cheap cookie cutter. Massive builders of America would put these in every house, whether it was 200800 1000 or 10 million. Because everybody would have a fair chance and then you would just have to worry about the tile guy making the tile look good. If it was my own house, I would probably be doing this unless it was something totally custom. These are great. You just have to wait a couple days to send in the measurements. And they are pretty pricey, but they are great, so they're worth the money.

I think the point isnt the "leak free" things youre using. You started with a black rubber liner which is exactly why showers leak. It wont flood or leak right away but itll gather underneath that '"leak free" white pan and as it sits overtime and fills up, itll start going through the grout and seeping through the corners of your shower by the trim. Ive been a tile installer for 7 years and the black rubber liner is the OLD school way. Im sure you dont want to hear about what i use either...as old school guys usually crap on all the new systems anyways, because theyve gone so long doing it there ONE and only way lol 😂

? 1. Why no flashing on the shower pan wall like it shows in the Tile Redi instructions on their website? So just a but joint with no flashing on the shower pan wall is acceptable? The pan you installed doesn’t have the deep grooves underneath that require approx a. 1-1/2” of mortar. Have you changed the design of the pans? Your website still shows the need for a approx 1-1/2 inch motor bed required instead of an application of thinset that was done in this demo.
@TileRedi_US9 ай бұрын
The flashing is an option, in this case we did not use it and only used the MS Polymer (Redi Sealant). Used according to the instructions will also provide a waterproof seal on the splashwall. You are correct, the shower pan installed is a different pan than you may have used in the past or see on our website. It is a flat bottom shower pan (Pro Line) similar to our custom pans and do not need to have the mortar installation filling up the ribs. This is currently available to the commercial market in limited sizes.
