Install the finished basin, walls, and ceiling materials according to established installation methods. For the suction assembly and K6717￿ Drain, the wall must be 3/4 to 163/46inches thick. The total thickness of the basin (basin material and finished floor material combined) must not exceed 161/46inches at the drain for the K6717￿ Drain. Refer to the installation instructions packed with the drain for specific details.
