A high-flow shower waste trap is generally recommended to ensure efficient drainage from this size of tray. Consult your installer or local plumbing codes for specific requirements.
Yes, its slim profile and strong construction make it ideal for modern wetroom designs.
The dimensions are 1600mm in width and 900mm in depth, with a height of 40mm.
The shower tray itself typically does not include a waste trap; this is usually purchased separately.
The Nuie Rectangular Shower Tray comes with a lifetime guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials.
Check the subfloor for unevenness. Use leveling compounds or adjustable feet (if applicable to your installation method) to achieve a perfectly level surface before tiling or fitting the enclosure.
Ensure the shower waste trap is correctly installed and not blocked. Verify that the waste pipe has adequate fall towards the drain. Check that the tray itself is perfectly level, as even a slight tilt away from the waste can cause pooling.
Minor scratches can often be buffed out using a plastic polish specifically designed for acrylic surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can cause more significant damage.
Setup: Ensure the subfloor is level and stable before installation. The flat underside of the tray allows for direct fitting or can be accommodated with support battens if required. Position the tray in its final location and check for levelness in all directions. Connect the waste trap to the central outlet, ensuring a secure and watertight seal. Adhere to local building regulations and manufacturer guidelines for waste pipe connections and drainage.
Compatibility: This tray requires a compatible shower waste trap (typically a high-flow trap due to the tray's dimensions) and appropriate plumbing for drainage. It is designed to be used with standard shower enclosures or can be part of a fully tiled wetroom.
Care: Clean the shower tray regularly using a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, as these can damage the acrylic surface. Rinse thoroughly with clean water after cleaning and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
