Garage drain grate
The garage is undoubtedly a space where you not only park your car, but often also have a small workshop. At the same time, minor repairs are carried out in the garage. It is worth investing in a drain grate. It will prove useful not only when you enter the garage after a heavy downpour. Well, thanks to proper drainage, you can maintain proper cleanliness in the garage. We can drain water from a hose or pour waste into the drain grate, e.g. after washing the car. Here you should know that in order for the drain grate to fulfill its role and work effectively, there should be appropriate slopes in the floor. Pay attention to the material from which the drain grate is made. The best model will be made of stainless steel, which is resistant not only to corrosion, but also to loads. Here, the Kessel basement inlet deserves attention. It is equipped with a siphon, but also a sediment trap. It will work even for old, cast iron drains. Importantly, it has an integrated anti-flood valve and non-return flaps that prevent flooding, e.g. of the garage during heavy rain. This solution will work even in underground garages.
Drain grate for boiler room
A drain grate should also be installed in the boiler room. A model with a dry siphon, such as the Alcadrain 105x105/50mm drain grate , will work well here. This model is made of high-quality materials. It is resistant to mechanical damage. The manufacturer has used a smart system in this case, thanks to which installation is easy and quick. Such a grate drains water from the floor level. It has a mechanical closure, which prevents unpleasant odors from entering the sewage system. The siphon is very easy to keep clean. It has a load class K3, i.e. up to 300 kg. The adjustable throat height of 9-95 mm is also worth noting. The drain grate increases the safety of use. Namely, in the event of a washing machine spilling in the boiler room, you do not have to worry about flooding the entire apartment. You cannot forget about proper installation. Namely, the grate should be located in the central part of the boiler room, and for it to work properly, the floor should have a 1% slope towards the drain.
Shower tray drain grate
It is very fashionable to create walk-in shower zones. In this case, it is necessary to make appropriate slopes and at least one drain. It must be admitted that a shower with a flat drain looks extremely modern. However, for the whole thing to work effectively, it is necessary to use an appropriate drain grate. Here, a model with a wet siphon will work best. This is a flow siphon through which water constantly flows into the sewage system. Contrary to appearances, you do not have to worry about unpleasant odors returning to the bathroom. Here we can recommend the Globe Kessel point drain for tiling . It is equipped with a stainless steel cover. Its base is adjustable in height. Attention 
also deserves high capacity and ease of keeping clean. If the drain is to be located in the corner of the shower area, the Globe Kessel corner drain for tiling will work well. The body is integrated with a lip seal. This model provides really good capacity, but it is also easy to keep clean. Note that it works particularly well in small bathrooms. The Viega floor drain made of plastic is also worth attention. It is equipped with a removable siphon. It is made of environmentally friendly PP, i.e. polypropylene, and stainless steel.
