Simplify Your Shower Remodel with Schluter KERDI‑SHOWER‑KIT

Looking to revamp your bathroom? The all-in-one Schluter KERDI‑SHOWER‑KIT delivers professional-grade waterproofing in a DIY-friendly package—perfect for creating a reliable, long-lasting tile shower or steam enclosure.

What Makes It Exceptional

• Complete, Waterproof System
  The kit includes a prefabricated shower tray, curb, KERDI waterproof membrane sheets, strips, corners, a pipe seal, and the KERDI-DRAIN with bonding flange and stainless steel grate—everything needed for a fully waterproof and vapor-tight enclosure.

• Fast & Accurate Installation
  Prefab components like the tray and curb eliminate mud-bed assembly, reducing labor and installation time. Schluter’s detailed guides and videos walk you step‑by‑step through membrane application, tray placement, sealing seams with Kerdi‑Band and Kerdi‑Kereck, and flood‑testing.

• Built-In Flood Testing
  The system supports a full water-test once components are in place, ensuring a verified seal before tile installation begins.

How It Works: A Step-by-Step Overview

1. Prep the Substrate – Ensure walls/subfloors are clean, flat, and firm.

2. Install Trays & Curbs – Dry-fit tray into mortar, then set curb securely in place.

3. Apply KERDI Membranes – Spread unmodified or Schluter SET thin-set, embed sheet-applied membrane and related corners/strips.

4. Seal Seams – Overlap with KERDI-BAND and reinforce corners with KERDI-KERECK. Thin-set overlap of at least 2″ ensures integrity.

5. Execute Water Test – Flood the pan for 24 hours and monitor—success means you’re tile-ready.

Benefits That Matter

• Total Waterproof Reliability
  Creates a sealed barrier from pan through walls, preventing water intrusion and mold—unlike traditional mud beds or liquid membranes that may dry slowly or develop pinholes.

• DIY-Friendly with Pro Results
  Built-in components and clear instructions make it accessible for handy homeowners, while ensuring professional-grade outcomes.

• Mold & Moisture Protection
  Eliminates microbial growth behind tiles by combining sheet membrane, vapor retarder, and tight flood-tested construction.

Pro Tips for a Trouble‑Free Project

• Use Schluter’s Thin‑Set: Maintain warranty and best bonding—unmodified thin-set is approved, but Schluter’s proprietary SET or ALL‑SET is ideal.

• Respect Overlap Specs: A 2″ seam overlap with proper thin-set is essential to avoid wicking.

• Flood‑Test Before Tiling: It’s the only way to ensure your waterproofing is sound—don’t skip it.

Final Take

The SCHLUTER KERDI‑SHOWER‑KIT simplifies the traditional grueling shower build into a modular, leak-resistant, and much faster system—ideal for both DIY enthusiasts and professional installers alike. It takes all the guesswork and complex mortar work out of the equation, replacing it with reliable waterproofing and quality assurance built right in.
