Product detailed description
This linear shower drain is commonly used in modern wetrooms, bathrooms, and other wet areas where efficient surface drainage is required. It integrates into tiled or sealed floor surfaces to manage water flow from showers, spa areas, and other wet installations. The design allows for a seamless, minimalist appearance while ensuring effective water removal. The drain is suitable for both residential and commercial applications where a linear drainage solution is preferred over traditional round or square drains.
Its stainless steel construction provides resistance to corrosion and wear, making it ideal for environments with high moisture levels. The adjustable cover allows for fine-tuning of the surface level to match the surrounding floor, ensuring a flush fit and preventing tripping hazards. The 55 mm installation depth ensures compatibility with standard floor constructions, including those with underfloor heating or reinforced substrates.

The technical parameters listed in the product table provide essential information for correct sizing and selection. The drain is available in multiple lengths from 500 mm to 1000 mm, allowing for customisation to fit the dimensions of the installation area. The 1.2 mm thickness of the channel ensures structural integrity while maintaining a low profile. The 55 mm installation depth must be considered when planning the floor structure to accommodate the drain without compromising the overall floor height.Installation and connection
The installation process involves cutting the floor to the required size, positioning the drain, and securing it with suitable adhesive or mechanical fasteners. The 2 cm flange ensures a stable connection to the surrounding surface. It is important to ensure the drain is level and aligned with the planned water flow direction. Common mistakes include incorrect depth measurements and improper sealing around the flange, which can lead to water leakage or uneven drainage. The adjustable cover should be set to match the finished floor level after tiling or sealing is complete.Compatibility and accessories
This linear drain is designed to integrate with standard plumbing systems and can be connected to existing waste lines using standard drainage fittings. It is compatible with a range of floor finishes, including ceramic tiles, natural stone, and sealed
concrete. No additional accessories are required for basic installation, but sealing compounds and adhesives suitable for wet environments should be used to ensure a watertight fit. The drain is not listed as compatible with any specific alternative products.Technical background for designers
The operating principle of the linear drain is based on gravity-driven water flow from the surface into the channel. The
stainless steel construction offers high resistance to corrosion and mechanical damage, ensuring long-term durability. The low-profile design allows for integration into a variety of floor types without affecting the aesthetics. The 55 mm installation depth and 1.2 mm channel thickness are
key factors in determining the structural load capacity and water flow efficiency. Proper planning of the slope and positioning is essential to avoid water pooling and ensure even drainage across the surface.Service and operation
Regular inspection of the drain is recommended to ensure the channel remains free from blockages and the cover remains securely in place. No specific service intervals are provided, but cleaning should be performed as needed to maintain performance. Checkpoints include verifying the cover height, inspecting for signs of corrosion, and ensuring the drain remains level with the surrounding surface. Any damage to the flange or channel should be addressed promptly to prevent water leakage and structural issues.Frequently asked questions
