Delivery Scope

• Complete set for direct installation

• Connect the floor drain body to the waste pipe.

• Perform a leak test to check for any leaks at the connection points.

• Prepare the mortar and ensure all gaps are filled. You can use the edges of the protective cover as a guide for alignment.

• Carry out the waterproofing process using the waterproofing membrane.

• Cut the parts of the membrane that overlap with the floor drain.

• Remove the temporary protective cover and apply the body-integrated membrane over the waterproofing membrane that covers the entire surface.

• Position the floor drain and cover within the body. Its patented eccentric structure allows for angular adjustment, enabling precise alignment in any direction.

• During the ceramic tile application, use the tile levelings for proper alignment. After the tiles have adhered, you can easily pull and break them off.

• Apply grout to the gaps between the ceramic tiles.

General Cleaning and Maintenance Guidelines

• Cleaning Frequency: Clean the drain and cover at intervals ranging from once a week to once a month, depending on usage intensity and local water hardness/contamination conditions. Shorten this interval in high-traffic applications.

• Cleaning Agents: For stainless steel surfaces, use pH-neutral or mild household cleaners. Avoid products containing strong acids (such as chlorine, hydrochloric acid, hydrofluoric acid) or highly alkaline substances.

• Cleaning Tools: Use soft microfiber cloths or sponges. Hard brushes, steel wool, or wire brushes will scratch the surface. Do not spray or pour cleaning agents directly onto the product; apply them to the cloth first and then clean the surface.

• Brushed / Textured Surfaces: Always clean brushed finishes in the direction of the grain to maintain the original surface appearance.

• Rinsing and Drying: After cleaning, thoroughly rinse all detergent residues with clean water. Dry the surface with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and staining.

• Siphon and Odour Trap Maintenance: Periodically remove the cover and siphon components to clear accumulated hair, soap residue, and other deposits. Regular cleaning helps prevent blockages and unpleasant smells.

• Protection and Corrosion Prevention: Avoid direct contact with other metallic surfaces. Do not leave mortar or cement residues on the product, as these can cause long-term surface damage.

• Surface Finish Compatibility: Select cleaning agents and tools suitable for the specific surface finish (polished, matte, or brushed). For example, polished finishes are more sensitive to scratches.

• Surface Finish Compatibility: Select cleaning agents and tools suitable for the specific surface finish (polished, matte, or brushed). For example, polished finishes are more sensitive to scratches.
