Advantages

The primary benefit of this linear floor drain is its dual-purpose grate, which offers significant aesthetic versatility by allowing the user to switch between a sleek metallic appearance and a hidden, tiled surface. The 80 cm length provides an ample drainage area, effectively preventing water accumulation in spacious shower enclosures. Its robust construction is resistant to corrosion and daily wear, ensuring that the drainage system remains functional and hygienic over many years of use. Maintenance is straightforward, as the design allows for easy access to the trap for cleaning, helping to maintain optimal flow rates and prevent odors.

Suitable for

• Walk-in showers in residential bathrooms
• Wet rooms and spa areas
• Modern bathroom designs requiring minimalist drainage
• Renovations where a seamless floor finish is desired

When it may not be suitable

This linear drain may not be suitable for installations where the floor structure does not provide sufficient depth for the drainage trap or where the required drainage capacity significantly exceeds the standard flow rate of this model. It is also not intended for outdoor use or industrial environments with heavy-duty chemical exposure.

Key specifications

• Length: 80 cm
• Design: Linear floor drain
• Grate type: Reversible (stainless steel or tileable)
• Application: Indoor shower and wet room drainage
• Material: Corrosion-resistant construction

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional to ensure proper slope and watertight sealing of the floor membrane. The drain body is set into the floor screed, and the height is adjusted to match the surrounding tile thickness. Once the waterproofing layer is applied and the tiles are laid, the reversible grate is inserted into the frame. You may choose to install the stainless steel side facing up or use the reverse side to bond a matching floor tile into the grate insert for a concealed appearance.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure the available floor depth to ensure compatibility with the drain height
• Verify the required drainage capacity for your shower head flow rate
• Ensure the shower floor has the correct slope toward the drain
• Check if the tile thickness is compatible with the tileable grate insert

Usage recommendations

Regularly remove the grate and clean the internal trap to prevent hair and debris buildup, ensuring the drain continues to function efficiently and remains odor-free.
