MARK E INDUSTRIES PRE PITCH KIT
The Mark E Industries Pre-Pitch™ is a unique, stay in place screeding tool designed for use Underneath shower pan liners. The first product to be installed, Pre-Pitch creates the proper sub floor pitch (1/4” per 12” run) needed to direct water flow towards the weep holes that are an integral part of shower floor drains. By having a pitch under the pan liner,water that passes through the mud bed is now directed to the weep holes instead of being trapped between the mud bed and the liner where many mold and mildew related issues originate.
