Typing and printing errors reserved. Easy Sanitary Solutions BV excludes all liability for any damages whatsoever associated with the use and/or 

the installation of the shower drain. Easy Sanitary Solutions BV a priori excludes any liability whatsoever.

The shower drain should only be installed by specialist companies in compliance with the building 

regulations. To achieve the best possible result, please carefully read the installation guide. If you have 

any questions, please consult your supplier.

USA

▪

Please check the content of the package for 

completeness and integrity before proceeding with 

the assembly. Do not install the drain if any deviations 

are noted. Should this be the case, please consult your 

supplier.

▪

Prior to construction, the installation procedure and its 

special considerations should be discussed with the tile 

setter.  After the installation of the drain body (rough) 

is complete, please provide the tile setter with the 

complete installation guide.

▪

If the drain is used for large showers with multiple heads, 

please check to make sure that the drainage capacity is 

sufficient. If you are unsure, please consult the supplier 

for advice.

▪

If you do not wish to use the second drainage level 

(secondary water drainage), the joint between the 

shower drain body and the TAF (tile frame) should be 

sealed with a permanent sealer. 

▪

We recommend taping or closing the drain opening 

of the shower drain with a cement cap prior to the 

assembly to prevent construction debris from getting 

into the drainage pipe. To prevent damage to the TAF 

(tile frame), it should be kept in the package until the final 

installation by the tiler.

▪

Make sure the drain is level all around. 

▪

Install the sewage system in compliance with the local 

and national codes.

 Note: 

ensure that the sewage 

system is properly vented and correctly pitched. 

▪

Check the drainage system and the sewer system 

connection for water tightness. 

▪

In order to prevent hollow spaces, all empty space 

beneath the drain must be completely filled up and 

sealed with floor pavement up to the top edge of the 

drain flange.

▪

The seal must be in compliance with the state and local 

standards.

▪

When tiles are being fitted, the pitch of the tiles (min. 

2% per 3’3” (≈1m

1

)) in the shower must always be sloped 

towards the drain. The tiles should be laid level or 3/64”  

(≈1 mm) higher than the top edge of the tile frame to 

ensure good drainage toward the shower drain.  

Note:

 the requirements with regard to the floor 

gradient may be different for walk-in showers with glass 

walls. Please consult your supplier in this respect.

▪

Once the tiles have been fitted, the joint between the 

tiled floor and the TAF (tile frame) should be permanently 

sealed with an elastic sealant (maintenance joint). The 

adhesion surfaces should be free of mortar, adhesive and 

other adhesion-reducing materials. 

▪

The drain is only intended for use with waste water 

common in households. Do not use other fluids as well 

as cleaning agents with the potential to damage sanitary 

equipment, drainage equipment and raw materials.

▪

If the drain is used for other purposes (e.g. swimming 

pools), where it may come in contact with aggressive 

cleaning agents or corrosive substances such as salt or 

chlorine, please consult your supplier.

▪

Construct the floor according to state and local building 

codes.

▪

Compliance with this installation advice is required for 

any warranty claims. Deviation from the installation 

instructions will void the warranty.

Caution !

▪

Tile cleaning products often contain aggressive 

chemicals that are abrasive in nature and may damage 

the drain. Please ensure that the drain is thoroughly 

flushed after using any tile and grout cleaning products.

▪

10 Years limited warranty only applies when constructed 

according to all installation instructions.

▪

Glass gratings are not suited for wheelchair accessibility.
