Yes, for optimal performance, the shower floor should be sloped towards the drain to ensure efficient water flow.
Ensure the shower floor has the correct slope towards the drain. Check the channel and waste pipe for any blockages (hair, soap scum, debris) and clear them. Verify the drain cover is correctly seated.
This can indicate a dry trap. Pour a bucket of water directly into the drain to refill the trap seal. Clean the drain channel thoroughly to remove any buildup that may cause odors.
Verify the tile thickness. Adjust the frame height if using thicker tiles. Ensure the reversible cover plate is oriented correctly for the tile depth.
Setup: Installation requires a correctly sloped subfloor leading to the drain. Ensure the drain body is securely fitted within the shower base and connected to the waste pipe according to local plumbing codes. The adjustable frame and reversible cover plate should be set to accommodate the specific tile thickness before final tiling.
Compatibility: This shower channel drain is designed for use in standard walk-in shower installations. It is compatible with most common tile types and thicknesses (up to 8mm on the reversible plate, up to 16mm with height adjustment). Ensure it is connected to a compatible waste pipe system.
Care: To maintain the appearance and functionality, regularly clean the drain cover and the channel. Use a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the stainless steel finish. Periodically check the channel for any debris that might obstruct water flow and clear as needed.
