Schluter Kerdi Point Drain with Integrated Bonding Flange

Schluter-KERDI-DRAIN is a shower drain specifically designed to allow connections to KERDI or other load-bearing, bonded waterproof membranes. The membrane is adhered to the large integrated bonding flange to form a waterproof connection at the top of the drain assembly. KERDI-DRAIN consists of a drain body and fully adjustable grate assembly or covering support to which tile is applied.

The standard KERDI-DRAIN is attached directly to the waste line. The drain body is available in ABS, PVC, or stainless steel. The plastic drain bodies feature a fleece-covered bonding flange. They are available with standard 2″ (50 mm) and 3″ (75 mm) outlets and attached to the pipe using an appropriate solvent cement.

The simple connection to standard drain outlets makes KERDI-DRAIN suitable for new construction and renovation.

How to Install Your Kerdi Drain

Preparation After locating the correct position, cut a hole in the substrate for the drain outlet and coupling to the waste line using the template provided. Note: Fill in box-outs in concrete floors with dry-pack mortar. A pipe coupling or similar can be used as a form around the waste line. Select form to accommodate the drain outlet and mechanical no-hub coupling (when applicable). Limit the diameter of the hole to 5″ (125 mm) maximum to ensure proper support of the tile assembly.

Drain installation If there is access to the plumbing from below and the waste line can be connected after installing KERDI-DRAIN, the drain can be installed in conjunction with the mortar bed. 1. Place a ring of loose mortar up to the inlet hole in the floor and firmly press the drain into the mortar. The bonding flange must be fully supported to prevent damage to the tile assembly (e.g., cracked grout around the drain).

Can I connect an ABS Schluter-KERDI-DRAIN bonding flange to my PVC waste line, or vice versa?

No, connecting the different plastics violates plumbing codes. ABS must be connected to ABS and PVC must be connected to PVC using the respective pipe cement. Can I use another manufacturer’s drain with your Schluter-Shower System? The Schluter-KERDI-DRAIN, Schluter-KERDI-LINE, Schluter-KERDI-LINE-VARIO drains are specifically designed to integrate with the Schluter-Shower System. Can the KERDI-DRAIN-STYLE and KERDI-LINE-STYLE grates fit into the original KERDI-DRAIN and KERDI-LINE frames? No they cannot.
