WallDrain from QuickDrain USA brings innovation to the modern bathroom shower. This different concept in shower drains features a linear drain design, but with no decorative metal components. Instead, water exits via the downward slope of the shower pan into a drain channel concealed behind the base of the wall, rendering WallDrain virtually invisible. Nearly any solid surface tile can be installed in the drain’s magnetic vertical cover before it is attached to the shower wall, resulting in a seamless and integrated design.
But this design does not come at the expense of function or flexibility.
- Function: WallDrain is engineered to extend the full length of the shower floor, promoting complete water evacuation. It’s a perfect solution for both curbed and curbless showers, accommodating universal designs in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
- Fexibility: To ensure a precise installation from one vertical surface to the next, WallDrain uses either vertical or side waste outlets, and trough extensions and drain covers can both be trimmed on-site after the drain body is positioned.
- Adaptability: WallDrain can adapt to almost any existing plumbing condition and can accommodate a poured shower pan or its own Quickslope PET (polyethylene terephthalate) rigid-foam panels. The latter is an environmentally friendly option, fabricated from recycled plastic water and soda bottles, that also reduces installation time and labor cost.
The styling of WallDrain lends itself to both traditional and contemporary bath décors. Applications encompass both residential and commercial spaces such as hospitality (hotels, resorts, casinos), athletic and health clubs, custom home master baths, and luxury apartment and condominium baths.
Key Specifications: WallDrain features a 316L marine grade stainless steel drain body. Three standard sizes are available: 48-, 72- and 96-inches. Onsite adjustability permits shower lengths of 26- to 72-inches with a single drain; 56- to 96-inches with two drains linked together. Each size is available with a standard vertical drain waste outlet, or with a side waste outlet configuration.
WallDrain is ADA-approved, meets Uniform Plumbing Code and International Plumbing Code standards, and meets or exceeds ASME A112.18.2-2005.
Complements Curbless Showers: QuickDrain National Showroom Manager, Darryl Jones, notes that the look and function of WallDrain provides an ideal fit with curbless showers.
