The classically-inspired Schluter®-KERDI-DRAIN is offered in a variety of grate finishes and accommodates a wide range of tile thicknesses. KERDI-DRAIN features an integrated bonding flange to which the KERDI waterproofing membrane is adhered and forms a waterproof connection at the top of the tile assembly.
Prefer something a little more luxurious? The Schluter®-KERDI-LINE low-profile linear drain takes your tiled shower to the next level—and is the ideal drain for curbless bathrooms. KERDI-LINE is available with several grate designs, including a frameless tileable covering support, which virtually disappears in the field tile. KERDI-LINE can be installed adjacent to walls or at intermediate locations in showers, steam rooms, wet rooms, and other applications that require drainage.
The Tile Shop presents this 'How To' video that details the necessary steps for installing a linear shower drain. Specific instructions for proper 24' and 32. Our original linear drain system, ProLine, features a drain body made of 18 Gauge 316L Stainless Steel, making it the ideal choice for projects requiring all stainless steel drains. Slot Drains provide a high volume water flow, with a narrow surface opening. This is perfect for not only a sleek look and finish, but also with the ability to move the same amount of water and no larger space or opening on your surface area. Comes in three options, our Micro Slot system, Slot Drain system, and Wall Slot system. For the ultimate in convenient, easy to place, and accessible shower drains, you can't do better than the StreamLine ™ linear drains by Sioux Chief. The internally sloped full length drain body connects directly to your waste pipe - meaning you don't have to worry about cutting tile to fit around a small round drain. The Schluter®-KERDI-LINE low-profile linear drain takes your tiled shower to the next level—and is the ideal drain for curbless bathrooms.

When Slot Drain was first introduced, grating, trench drains and four-sloped floors were standards in the drainage industry. Slot Drain changed surface drainage forever by providing the first pre-sloped, prefabricated drain system available. In doing so we provide an open floor drain system that is superior in many ways.
Slot Drain is a one-piece, built-in sloped, open floor drain / surface drain system with a linear slot on top, that is unlike anything else. The linear slot eliminates the need for grating, making it the most durable, sanitary and cost effective drainage system available. It's applicable wherever floor or ground surfaces are subject to fluids, or have frequent cleaning requirements. Most Slot Drain applications are slab on grade, but it can also work in structural slabs and hollow core slabs. Overall, it replaces trench drains, with a self-cleaning system, at a significantly reduced cost.
Slot Drain was patented in 1988 and was the first floor drain on the market in North America to utilize the innovative prefabricated, pre-sloped and slotted concept, reducing construction labour costs. Since then, it has been installed successfully in hundreds of applications, satisfying both customers and construction professionals alike.
Four-sloped floors, or contoured floors, are replaced with effective, low maintenance and low cost, two-sloped floors. Gone are the metal gratings and metal covers that are a nuisance to remove and clean. It's available in both fiberglass and stainless steel, with T-Sections, 90° and 45° elbows to go around corners and other obstacles.
Versatile, Durable & Sanitary
A big part of what makes Slot Drain so versatile is that there is no grating. In addition to common drainage use, this makes Slot Drain especially suitable wherever grating is not desired. Some examples would be: areas subject to heavy/high traffic and food and drink processing facilities with frequent inspections/cleaning requirements. Part of what makes Slot Drain suitable for these applications is its durability and sanitary qualities.
Slot Drain is the most durable surface drain system on the market. The only parts of the drain exposed are the surface inlets which are made of stainless steel (for stainless steel drain sections) and galvanized steel (for fiberglass drain sections). The rest of the drain is embedded into the concrete, so it can handle whatever weight you want to put on it. There is no grating, which deteriorates / breaks / bends and needs replacing. This makes it especially suited for heavy/high traffic areas, such as airport, parkades, warehouses, truck and rail loading docks.
Slot Drain does not have grating to trap contaminants / bacteria, etc. A simple hose down of the floor is all that is required for cleaning. Also, Slot Drain does not absorb water/contaminants and allows contaminants to be disposed of in an environmentally manner. Another major benefit of Slot Drain is that flush valves can be added to the shallow end of the drain and set on timers or flushed manually in order to remove any sediment or contaminants automatically.
