2.2 Intended use
2.2.1 Areas of use
The shower channel is used in the bathroom as a drain for a floor-level
shower. It is designed for small to medium volumes of water, which
occur in e.g. residential building.
Technical information, see Ä Chapter 2.3.3 „Technical data“ on page 9.
2.2.2 Media
The shower channel is intended for draining of household-type waste‐
water in constant operation, see Ä „Regulations from section: Media“
on page 6.
nThe short-term temperature of the wastewater may reach up to
95° C. The temperature must be considerably lower in constant
operation.
nThe pH value must be higher than 4 but lower than 10.
It is not permitted to introduce wastewater which would damage the
product material.

2.4 Information for use
2.4.1 Sealing
To protect against moisture penetration, apply sealing foils, which are to
be processed in liquid state, directly below the tiles on screed and
walls. The determination of the stress class and the underground as well
as the selection of the suitable bonded sealing must be carried out in
compliance with the valid standards and regulations, see: Ä „Regula‐
tions from section: Sealing“ on page 6.
Bonded sealing
Product information
Advantix Cleviva shower channel base unit (reconstruction model) 9 from 30

Careful planning is required for professional sealing. In addition,
depending on the individual dampness wear class and the type of foun‐
dation, a suitable thin bed bonded sealing with a building regulations
certificate of suitability must be chosen.
Furthermore, the following factors should be taken into account:
nThe drain or shower channel must be equipped with a special flange,
which has an adhesive surface and a width of at least 50 mm.
nFor bridging the material change from drain to screed, either a suit‐
able sealing collar or sealing tape designed for overlapping with the
thin bed bonded sealing over a width of at least 50 mm must be
used.
nThe screed must be laid at a minimum incline of 1–2%.
nThe installation must be carried out properly in acc. with the
mounting instructions and the manufacturer's information.

3 Handling
3.1 Assembly information
3.1.1 Important note
Before assembly:
nCheck if the drainage capacity of the model chosen is sufficient for
the arising water volume Ä Chapter 2.2.3 „Drainage capacity“
on page 7.
nIn the case of the connection of two or three shower channels:
Observe the information for dimensioning of collective
lines Ä Chapter 2.2.3 „Drainage capacity“ on page 7.
nAn adequate level of floor covering stability must be guaranteed
Ä Chapter 2.3.3 „Technical data“ on page 9. This can be achieved
either through an adequate screed thickness or another alternative
solution. Relevant measures must be considered before mounting.
nThe dimensions of slots and recesses must be in compliance with
the regulations from section
Ä „Regulations from section: Important
notes“ on page 7.
During assembly:
nObserve installation dimensions.
nPosition the shower channel in such a way that the insert is remov‐
able.
After assembly:
nThe shower channel must be fully lined with mortar.
nThe sealing accessories should be given to the person responsible
for the bonded sealing (e.g. tiler).
nCoordinate all relevant installation details, especially regarding the
bonded sealing, with those responsible for the subsequent work.
3.1.2 Tools and materials
nHand saw (saw blade maximum 1.5 mm)
nTool for removing the insert (e.g. model 4965.90, art. no. 689 704)

3.2 Assembly
3.2.1 Determine height
The tiler set has to be handed over to the person respon‐
sible for the bonded sealing (tiler).
Determine the screed height H.
The installation height is 70–155 mm.
Shorten the dimension X on the mounting flange.
X = 155 mm - H
Deburr the mounting flange.
INFO! The height can be extended using a commercially available
50Ø HT pipe.

Check the drain casing and the connection line for leaks.
Re-affix the label.
Align the flange horizontally in all directions.
NOTICE!
Product damage due to improper installation
If hollow spaces occur during the lining of the shower
channel, leaks may occur when pressure is applied.
Inform the subsequent workers that the shower channel
must be fully lined and that there must be no hollow spaces.
The screed and floor tiles must be laid at an incline of 1–2 %
in the direction of the shower channel.
Requirement:
nThe site protection has been mounted.
Line the shower channel with screed.
Fill with screed to the upper edge of the site protection.
