The Ebbe Subfloor Recess kit is used to quickly and easily lower a subfloor between the joists for a barrier free shower installation. Perfect for I-Joists because you install the bracket on top of the I-Joist.

Brackets need to be spaced at a maximum of 36″ to achieve L/360 with a live load of 40PSF and a dead load of 20PSF. You supply the 2×4 lumber that will sit on the brackets. We recommend structural grade 2 or better douglas fir, larch or pine.

If your subfloor is thick, trim the 2×4 so the subfloor is flush with the joist.
