Kerdi-Drain Horizontal

August 26th, 2019 by Jill Querker

Schluter®-KERDI-DRAIN-H is a floor drain with an integrated bonding flange that provides as large contact area for a secure connection to Schluter®-KERDI waterproof membrane at the top of the assembly. KERDI-DRAIN-H is appropriate for both mortar bed and Schluter®- KERDI-SHOWER-T/-TS/-TT shower tray applications. The bonding flange is sloped to simplify installation of the mortar bed.

The KERDI-DRAIN-H flange provides a horizontal connection to the drain pipe and is available in ABS or PVC with a 2" (50 mm) outlet. It is ideal for applications where the use of a vertical connection to the drain pipe is not possible or practical (e.g., suspended or post-tension concrete floors, basement slabs, or wood floor installations where relocating the hole in the floor is not practical). The horizontal outlet allows the positioning of the drain in the desired area within 3 ft, (91 cm) of the drain pipe location.

A compensation board, Schluter®-KERDI-SHOWER-CB  is available for use with KERDI-DRAIN-H in conjunction the KERDI-SHOWER-T/-TS/-TT shower trays.

KERDI-DRAIN-H corresponds with various customizable KERDI-DRAIN grate options, (available separately.) The KERDI-DRAIN grates are fully adjustable (available in stainless steel and anodized aluminum in various finishes) and accommodate a wide range of tile thicknesses: 1/4" (6 mm) to 1-1/4" (32 mm.) A tileable covering support that accommodates any tile thickness and creates a virtually invisible drainage line is also available. The grate assembly allows for lateral and tilt adjustment as well. Please note: Grate assemblies used with the plastic KERDI-DRAIN featuring 3" (75 mm) outlets only allow vertical and tilt adjustment (no lateral adjustment). 6" -square stainless steel covers are also available for installations where KERDI-DRAIN or KERDI-DRAIN-H are to be used in a cleanout application.
