What happens here

Cut the necessary opening for the water regulator on the tiled wall using an oscillating multi-tool. Install the pre-ordered shower head system, which includes a 16x16 inch overhead rain shower, a detachable handheld sprayer, and the water regulator. Ensure all components are securely attached and properly sealed. Install custom-cut shower glass panels. First, mount the provided brackets onto the glass panels using designated slots. Then, carefully bring the glass into position and set it onto clear rubber 1/8-inch spacers to prevent chipping. Mark and drill holes for the brackets using a tile drill bit, vacuum out debris, and secure the brackets with special tapered anchors and screws. Finally, trim off the 1/8-inch spacers and fill all bracket areas and seams with waterproof silicone for a secure and watertight finish.

Goal: Complete the shower by installing all functional and aesthetic fixtures, including shower heads and glass panels.

work from there the next day when the towel was dry I applied the grout and then let the area dry one more day now you might be asking why I'm cutting the hole for the water regulator so last minute well that's because the exact type of water regulator I ordered was on backorder and so I couldn't let that slow down the momentum besides I'm still able to access the back of the wall with a regulator Viso mounting won't be an issue most prefabricated shower glass panels are sold up to about three feet wide and since I needed six I had to special order it from a local glass company the glass took about five days to be cut and delivered to my door now because I wanted to do the installation myself I have the guys that the glass company give me a quick tutorial of how to do it right it starts with mounting the provided brackets onto the glass via the designated slots then bringing it a glass to where it will sit and setting the glass onto these clear rubber eighth inch spaces that way your glass is not sitting right on the glass where it could chip I then marked out where the holes for the brackets will go once marked I used a quarter inch tile drill to drill out the holes vacuum out all the debris from the holes and secure the special tapered anchors into the holes I then aligned the glass into position and secure the brackets into the anchors with the provided screws all that was left was to trim off the eighth inch spacers with a blade and fill all the brackets and all the seams using the waterproof silicone one of the last steps in the waterproofing they recommend to take a waterproofing silicone and run a bead down at the bottom of the shower pan to give one more layer of added protection encase the grout cracks and water starts breaking down the materials the last step in making the shower operational is the showerhead and the hardware I bought this two-piece shower system on Amazon for three hundred dollars it includes sixteen by sixteen overhead arranged as well as a detachable handheld sprayer water regulary and absolutely everything needed to install it so far I really like the system and it has great reviews not to mention some of the name brands out there are selling these systems for like triple the price I'll link it down description as well for you guys to check out if you want [Music] hey thanks so much for watching this
