Installation of a wall drain

Sometimes the work seems complicated, but as it turns out, it is not. Let's start with how to install a wall drain step by step.

Step One: Install the sewer approach

Here you need to know that the installation varies depending on the type of substrate or ceiling. Most often, it is made in a densely ribbed or reinforced concrete ceiling.

Step two: Installation of drain elements

Basically, the assembly is not very complicated, but you must remember to mount it at the right height. The wall drain must always be located higher than the connection point of the drainage pipes.

Step three: water drop

Another important thing you need to pay attention to is the water drop. It must be placed on both sides of the drain. Ideally it would be around 2.5%. This means that the water fall should be reduced by 2.5 cm x 1 m and in the appropriate orientation to the drain. Under no circumstances should this aspect be forgotten, as it disturbs the outflow of water.

Step four: installing insulation

In this case, you must remember that the wall drains must be sealed. Once the floor is dry, you need to lay the sealing mat and you have two options: you can place it near the drain gutter, but you can also use it on the surface of the cabin.

Step five: laying the subfloor

Finally, all you need to do is lay the tiles, starting from the drain. You also need to match the tiles to the screed.

How to clean a wall drain?

Keeping the drain clean is extremely important for safety, but also for comfort of use. However, you must remember to clean the drain properly. It will only take a few minutes and you will avoid clogging the sewage system. You can clean the drain once every two weeks. Now that that's clear, it's time to learn the instructions. First, we open the drain. This can be done using a special key. Thanks to this, we can quickly raise the grate. When this stage is over, clean the removed grate thoroughly, preferably with warm water and detergent. Don't forget to use protective gloves. Once the grate is washed, rinse it under warm water. Now we can remove the mesh and siphon insert. We thoroughly clean them of all kinds of dirt and hair. Such work may not be pleasant, but you can do it quite quickly. After this operation, remove the grates with a wrench and remove the wet siphon inserts. Wash all parts under running water. Now we clean the surface of the drain spout, as dirt and cosmetic residues usually appear on it, so it is worth rinsing its surface under a strong stream of water. All that remains is to put the drain in its place. We remind you not to use sharp brushes. Soft microfiber cloths will work much better.
