Sleek Linear Design
The Strip Grate VL features a slim linear profile designed to integrate neatly into the shower floor. Its understated design provides a contemporary alternative to traditional shower wastes while maintaining practical drainage functionality.
The Organic Brushed Brass finish introduces a warm golden tone to the shower area, making it a distinctive choice for bathrooms featuring brass, warm metallic or natural finishes. The smooth contours of the grate are designed to help prevent hair and debris from catching.
Flexible Installation
The Strip Grate VL is designed to accommodate different shower layouts and plumbing configurations. The collection channel can be cut to the exact length required onsite, providing flexibility when fitting the drain to the available shower space.
The range is available in 750mm, 900mm, 1200mm, 1500mm and 2250mm kits, which can be cut to length or joined together where required.
The outlet spigot can also be positioned wherever needed along the collection channel, making it easier to align the shower drain with new or existing plumbing.
20mm Snap-Off Upstand
A 20mm removable snap-off upstand runs along the collection channel and is designed to assist with waterproofing when the shower grate is installed against a wall.
The upstand allows the waterproofing system to be integrated into the wall-side installation and provides a practical surface for completing the shower area neatly. When the grate is positioned away from the wall, the upstand can be broken off to suit the installation.
20mm Waterproofing Flange
The Strip Grate VL collection channel incorporates a 20mm flange, allowing the channel to be waterproofed into place as part of the shower installation.
The tiler can run the screed up to the channel before the waterproofer applies the waterproofing system over the screed and grate system. Once waterproofing has been completed, the shower area is ready for tiling.
Easy to Install
The Strip Grate VL is designed to provide a straightforward installation process for tradespeople. Simply cut the grate to the required size, glue the end caps and spigot into place, and install the channel into the shower base.
After the screed and waterproofing have been completed, the shower area can be tiled. The unique spacer system allows the grate to be raised to the appropriate height, helping achieve a flush finish with the surrounding floor tiles.
Flexible Outlet Positioning
The outlet spigot can be positioned along the collection channel wherever required, providing flexibility when connecting the shower drain to the plumbing system.
The collection channel is designed to integrate into the plumbing system by connecting directly to a 50mm PVC S-trap.
Organic Brushed Brass Finish
The Organic Brushed Brass finish is made from raw brass in its natural, uncoated state. As a natural material, the brass will develop a patina over time, gradually taking on a more aged appearance and changing in colour.
This natural ageing process gives the grate a distinctive character over time. For customers who prefer to maintain the original golden appearance of the Organic Brushed Brass finish, regular cleaning and gentle care are recommended.
Organic Brushed Brass Cleaning & Aftercare
To help maintain the beautiful golden appearance of the Organic Brushed Brass finish, regularly clean the grate using a soft microfibre cloth and mild dish soap.
Wipe away soap residue, stains and moisture regularly using a dry, soft cloth to help reduce the appearance of watermarks.
Avoid using harsh chemicals, brushes, abrasive materials or scrubbing sponges, as these can damage the natural brass surface.
If using a commercially available or natural brass cleaning product, test it first on a small, inconspicuous section of the grate to check its compatibility with the surface.
With gentle cleaning and regular care, the Organic Brushed Brass grate can maintain its warm golden appearance while allowing the natural character of the brass to develop over time.
