The pipe from the shower drain shall be plugged watertight for the test. The floor and receptor area shall be filled with potable water to a depth of not less than 2 inches (51 mm) measured at the threshold. Where a threshold of not less than 2 inches (51 mm) in height does not exist, a temporary threshold shall be constructed to retain the test water in the lined floor or receptor area to a level not less than 2 inches (51 mm) in depth measured at the threshold. The water shall be retained for a test period of not less than 15 minutes and there shall not be evidence of leakage.   Copyright © 2024 International Code Council, Inc., or its licensors (ALL RIGHTS RESERVED).

On November 30th, 2023, ANSI A118.18 was approved as a standard for foam core backer boards including KERDI-Board. This Standard will be published in the 2024 book of ANSI Standards for Ceramic Tile installation. ANSI A118.18 for foam boards contains the following requirements: Provided that all requirements of the Schluter System Installation Hanbook and the Schluter KERDI-Board Data Sheet are met, KERDI-Board is a suitable replacement for glass mat gypsum backing panels (ASTM C1178), fiber-reinforced gypsum panels (ASTM C1278), non-asbestos fiber-cement backer boards (ASTM C1288 or ISO 8336, Category C), and non-asbestos fiber mat reinforced cementitious backer units (ASTM C1325) when used as a backer for wall tile in wet areas. Please reach Chris Hill via email for further insight and information regarding this new and exciting development.
