SureStep® experts caution you to avoid certain serious application mistakes that could result in a material reduction in the profile's effectiveness.
A. DON'T leave any voids under tiles or either above or below fitting ledges.****
B. DON'T leave any gaps where tiles abut the profile. Any grout used to fill in such gaps will crumble out.
C. DON'T alter the sequence of mounting vertical (5) before horizontal tiles (7).*****
D. To avoid retaining water on steps, mount the horizontal tile flush with the surface of the profile's working element (1.1) or slightly higher, but never lower. For the same reason, SureStep® experts provide their steps with a slight frontal and longitudinal inclination.
