Sterling Hvac 72132106-0 Shower Back Wall 60x72.5 in White

Product Description

The STERLING HVAC 72132106-0 is a modular shower enclosure back wall designed for the Ensemble shower line. Constructed from solid Vikrell material, this back wall delivers structural strength, impact resistance, and a high-gloss white finish that resists soap scum and cleans easily. At 60 inches wide and 72.5 inches tall, it covers a standard shower back wall opening. Tongue-and-groove interlocking joints create a seamless appearance between panels and simplify alignment during installation. The panel includes factory-installed age-in-place backers, allowing grab bars to be added later without core drilling or additional blocking. Integrated shelving on the back wall provides built-in storage for soap, shampoo, and accessories.

This back wall panel is intended for use in residential and light commercial shower enclosure installations. It is specifically designed for the Ensemble 7213 shower enclosure series. The modular design allows individual panels to be moved through standard doorways and around corners, making it practical for retrofit and remodel applications where access is limited. Licensed plumbers and tile or bath installers typically handle the fit-out. The panel meets CSA B45.5/IAPMO Z124, ASTM E162/E662, and UL 2818 standards, making it suitable for code-compliant residential and commercial shower builds.
