Abstract
An assembly for mounting a bath fixture to a wall having a surface formed with a plurality of holes opening at the surface has respective anchors seated in the holes, a bracket adapted to hold the fixture and having a face turned toward the wall at the holes, a disk of elastomeric material between the bracket face and the wall surface and formed with throughgoing apertures aligned with the wall holes, and respective screws extending through the bracket and through the disk apertures and securing the bracket to the wall with the disk compressed between the bracket and the wall. The elastomeric disk, which has a Shore A hardness of about 65 and a thickness of about 1 mm and may be made of closed-cell sponge rubber, prevents water from getting into the space behind the bracket, in particular into the region around the hole in the wall.
