{"product_id":"schluter-kerdi-shower-kit-48-72","title":"Schluter® KERDI-SHOWER-KIT 48\" × 72\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the kit for a proper primary bathroom shower — 48\" × 72\" gives you a long, open rectangular footprint with room for a bench, a rain head, or just the luxury of not feeling cramped. If your client is upgrading a master bath, this is the size that actually delivers on the \"spa-like\" promise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIncludes the KERDI-SHOWER-T pre-sloped foam tray, full KERDI waterproofing membrane roll for walls, KERDI-BAND strips for seams and corners, and hardware.

The KERDI-SHOWER-T has the slope engineered in at the factory. You're not trusting your float job; you're trusting Schluter's tooling. At this size, that's a meaningful quality assurance advantage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat it pairs with\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrain options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard center-drain KERDI-DRAIN body + Classic stainless or Trendline grate kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUpgrade idea:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair with KERDI-SHOWER-LT (linear tray) if your client wants a wall-to-wall drain and large-format tile — the flat single-plane slope makes 24\"×24\"+ tile much easier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench:\u003c\/strong\u003e KERDI-BOARD-SB prefab bench integrates into the system waterproofing seamlessly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNiche:\u003c\/strong\u003e At this length, two KERDI-BOARD-SN niches work well — one each end wall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProfiles:\u003c\/strong\u003e JOLLY or RONDEC on any outside tile edges at the shower entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003ePro Tips\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor tile 12\" × 24\" or larger on this tray, consider 3\/8\" to 1\/2\" back-buttering in addition to trowel lines — large format needs maximum coverage to handle the four-plane slope without lippage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe 48\" × 72\" tray can accommodate a bench in one corner — plan the bench position before tiling so it integrates with the waterproofing layer properly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMark your no-heat zones now if adding DITRA-HEAT: stay 2\" from walls and 4\" from the drain, and don't run cables under a fixed bench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-plan your tile layout on paper — at 72\", running a 12\" tile produces an even 6 tiles with no cuts.
