Modest as the equipment may seem, the humble shower drain is an essential building component in the modern bathroom which can be used in private residential bathrooms, sport and leisure facilities, commercial offices as well as hotels.
The modern bathroom
Increasingly, home owners, designers and renovators are opting for a lavish, contemporary, open-plan bathroom design with walk-in showers. The muse for this trend can be found in the embellishment of traditional oriental baths and even modern luxury spas. The characteristics of this innovative bathroom design style are rich outlines, high-quality elements and floor-level showers.
Convenience, Comfort and Safety
Flush to the floor shower channels or shower gullies are comfortable, safe and thus especially suitable for the elderly, people who are physically challenged or individuals who are recuperating from an operation or injury.
Cleaning
Keeping things clean is always important, especially in a bathroom. ACO stainless steel drains fulfil stringent hygienic requirements to minimise the accumulation of harmful bacteria and pathogen contamination. The removable foul-air trap is also formed from stainless steel, and apart from preventing odours, it is integrated in such a way to ensure easy cleaning.
Functionality in Design
The shower drain is the aesthetically pleasing alternative to conventional shower trays. The drain handsomely amalgamates form with function, combining aesthetics and style with a robust canal body fashioned in stainless steel. The most visually important element is the grating, and this comes in numerous designs in stainless steel. ACO Shower drains are available in standard lengths from 700 to 1,000mm.
Adding a personal touch
Design can be further enhanced through the ACO Shower Drain Lightline illuminated shower channels. This channel turns a functional part of a shower a bathroom design element, adding an extra touch of elegance and personality to those who seek it.
Combining function and design, this customised channel makes use of aqua-sensitive LED lighting. The combination of high quality electro-polished stainless steel gratings, water and coloured- LED lighting creates a completely new environment in the bathroom. This style of channel successfully combines simple installation and cleaning, with a totally elegant design, topped off with stunning optical effects.
