Setup:
The INSL8 shower niche is designed for recessed installation into a wall cavity. This typically involves cutting an opening in the drywall and securing the niche within the studs. For models with LED lighting, an electrical connection will be necessary. It is highly recommended to consult the installation manual and, if you are not experienced with electrical work or wall construction, to hire a qualified professional. Ensure the niche is properly sealed around the edges to prevent water ingress behind the wall.
Compatibility:
This niche is compatible with most standard wall constructions (e.g., drywall over studs). It is designed for use in showers and wet rooms, meaning it's built to withstand high humidity and direct water exposure. The matte white finish is generally compatible with a wide range of tile styles and colors. The LED lighting requires a standard electrical power source.
