Installation Instructions
Follow the instructions provided with the gravity waste.
Do Not fit the the waste top cover as this is replaced by the
stainless steel cover.
As a “dry run” first place the wet floor former into the desired
location and determine the position and depth of clearance
required to position the gravity waste.
Before fitting the gravity waste place the nut onto the waste pipe,
followed by the backing ring and the seal. Insert waste pipe into the
gravity waste, and tighten nut. Check pipe connection is correctly
assembled, sealed and watertight.
Now install the wet floor former over the gravity waste according
the instructions.
Beforeinstalling the TFWA check the shower tray area slopes
correctly towards the waste and the waste outlet pipe slopes down
and away from the waste position by approximately 25mm per
metre run (1 in 40).
To remove the central Stainless Steel grid insert the grid removal
tool into one of the corner slots. Then gently lever the grid up and
out. Do not try to pull the grid out vertically.
Unscrew the grid frame threaded adjustment ring – put these
to one side.
Fitting the sealed Flooring
Temporarily blank off waste centre hole to stop debris entering;
Apply wet floor tanking sealant to floor to overlap edge
of waste 25mm, let this dry beforecontinuing;
Insert centre waste grid fitting carefully and screw down until height is level with intended finished floor.
Move sliding locking clip towards centre of waste to lock height adjustment;
Rotate centre grid to line up with tile edges (this is sometimes a tight / stiff action);
Fitting the sealed Flooring (continued)
REMOVE THE CENTRE STAINLESS STEEL GRID AND STORE TO ONE SIDE TO ENSURE IT IS NOT
DAMAGED DURING TILING
IMPORTANT: Tiling cement must be carefully packed around and below the centre grid support to ensure a
long and trouble free life to the product and water-proof seal to the flooring is maintained.
Finishing the waste installation
Clean up inside the waste grid area of tile grout and cement – do NOT place this in the waste!
REMOVE TEMPORARY WASTE BLANKING MATERIALS, clean any grout and cement or other rubbish
from the waste; lift out the trap bucket and empty it.
Re-fit the stainless steel grid. It should sit level with the edge of the frame and the finished floor surface.
