Help needed on Trap/ drain for walk in shower

adam911 · 21 Jan 2019

Hi im about to have my floor tiled for wet room shower and i needed to know which trap/drain is correct to buy.
My bathroom is downstairs and tiles are going over concrete floor.
Couldn't find any traps or drains from b&q or wickes for a walk in shower as they only had traps for shower trays. Could someone point me into the right direction?

Would this be correct to use . https://www.victorianplumbing.co.uk...MIxp_E3_P_3wIVAamaCh20CQOJEAQYAiABEgLPafD_BwE

For smaller wetroom floors with a central drain,i would use the mcalpine tsg50t6ss product. For larger wetroom floors a linear drain is useful.

Thanks for that. So what else do i need. Can i tile straight onto the concrete floor or will i need some sort of membrane. Or can i just use tanking slurry for the walls and floor with the small square mat you get with it that goes around the drain hole?

This is what we use. There is an argument that on a concrete base, with properly formed falls to the drain, a membrane is not required but will make future retiling easier as it will act as a delaminator.

Hi what grout would you use in a wet room floor? Is the normal cement based fine to use or do i need epoxy grout?
