Two Sided Linear Shower Drain 50cm | Tileable shower channel | shower drain with odour stop

It is a 50 centimetre long drainage channel that sits flush in the bathroom floor instead of a small round waste. "Two sided" means the top plate can be fitted either way up, giving you a plain stainless grate on one face and a tile insert tray on the other. You pick the look that suits your floor.

A round waste needs the floor to fall towards a single central point, which usually means four separate tile planes meeting at the drain. A linear channel only needs a fall in one direction, so tiles can run straight and large format tiles become practical. Drainage also tends to be more even across the wet area.

Yes, the tile insert side of the plate is a shallow tray designed to take a cut piece of your floor tile. Your tiler bonds the tile into the tray so the drain almost disappears into the floor. The open slots around the edge of the tray carry the water down.

The manufacturer lists drainage of up to 36 litres per minute. A typical domestic shower head delivers well under that, so the channel should keep ahead of the flow. Actual performance also depends on your waste pipe size and the fall of the floor.

It does. The siphon holds a water seal that acts as a barrier between the room and the waste pipe. As long as the trap keeps water in it, which it does with normal use, odour stays below the floor.

Any water trap can slowly evaporate if a room sits unused for a long stretch. If you come back to a faint smell, run water into the drain for ten or twenty seconds to refill the seal. That is normal behaviour for every trapped waste, not a fault.

Yes, a removable hair catcher sits in the channel above the siphon. It collects hair and soap residue before they reach the pipe, which is the main cause of slow bathroom drains. It lifts out by hand for cleaning.

For a shower used daily by a couple of people, once a week is a sensible rhythm. If someone in the house has long hair, you may want to pull the catcher out every few days. The job takes under a minute once you have done it twice.

It is built from 304 stainless steel, the grade commonly used in kitchens and bathrooms for its resistance to rust. The joints are solid welded rather than clipped together. The listed finish is stainless steel in a silver colour.

The stated maximum load is 300kg. That covers normal foot traffic in a shower or laundry with a good margin. It is one of the reasons people choose a welded stainless channel over a lighter plastic unit.

Two support legs adjust between 77mm and 121mm. During installation the plumber sets the channel so the top sits level with the finished tile surface, then locks the legs before the screed is poured. Without adjustment you end up packing the body with offcuts, which is far less accurate.

That depends on your pipe size and position, so check the outlet against your plumbing before you order. In most renovations a linear drain is installed as part of a floor rebuild rather than dropped onto an existing waste. A plumber can confirm compatibility quickly.

If you are comfortable with waterproofing, screed falls and connecting a waste, it is within reach for an experienced DIY renovator. Most people have it done as part of a bathroom job, because the drain has to be set before the membrane and tiles go on. Getting the height and fall right is the part that rewards experience.

Yes. Any floor drain in a wet area must be tied into the waterproof membrane according to the rules in your region. The flange around the body is there so the membrane can be bonded to it. Skipping that step is how water finds its way into the slab.

Common positions are against the back wall, along the entry threshold, or centred under the shower head. Against the wall is popular because it lets the whole floor fall in one direction away from the door. Think about where you want the single line to read visually as well.

Yes. The same channel works in a laundry, a kitchen prep area, a balcony or any floor that needs to shed water and then be walked on. People looking for the best tileable shower channel often end up using a second one in the laundry for the same reasons.

It is a good fit for wet rooms, where the whole floor is tiled and falls towards the drain. A long channel moves more water than a point waste, and a single fall direction is much easier to tile with large format tiles. Confirm the drainage rate suits your shower outputs if you are running a rain head plus body jets.

The channel is 50cm long. The listed item dimensions in the maker's details are 20mm wide by 15mm high, and the overall carton dimensions are not specified here. If an exact cut-out size is critical, confirm it before the screed goes down.

No, the weight is not specified by the maker. It is a welded stainless unit, so it has real heft compared with plastic alternatives. If shipping weight matters to you, contact us before ordering.

The listed colour is silver, which is the natural look of brushed stainless steel. It sits quietly against grey, white, charcoal or stone tiles. On the tile insert side the drain mostly takes on the colour of your own floor tile.

Stainless steel can mark if you attack it with abrasives or steel wool. Normal use, bare feet and water will not harm it. Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent and the finish stays even.

Occasional mild use is unlikely to cause harm, but heavy bleach and aggressive drain chemicals are not kind to stainless over time. Because the hair catcher and siphon lift out, you rarely need chemicals at all. Mechanical cleaning is more effective and safer for the finish.

The maker describes a self cleaning design, which refers to the way water flow helps flush the channel and siphon rather than leaving standing debris. It still needs the hair catcher emptied by hand. Think of it as low maintenance rather than no maintenance.

The top plate, hair catcher and siphon all lift out, which means the serviceable parts are accessible without breaking tiles. That is the main advantage of a removable trap design. For replacement components, contact us with the model number PS-DA02S-5.

The maker lists one item in the pack, the drain unit itself. Pipework, adhesive, membrane and tiles are supplied by your plumber or tiler. Assume you will need standard local waste fittings to connect it.

Delivery is by tracked courier to any Singapore address. Allow 7 to 12 working days from the order date, as the goods travel from overseas warehouses. Orders of $150 or more are delivered free, and smaller orders pay a flat $20.

Change of mind returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery for items in resaleable condition in their original packaging, with the buyer paying return postage. Get in touch before sending anything back so we can give you the return details. A faulty or damaged item is put right at our cost.

It is a practical gift for someone mid renovation, especially if they have already mentioned hating the old round floor trap. It is not a surprise-on-the-table kind of present. If you are buying for someone else's build, check the drain position and pipe size with them first.

Plastic channels are lighter and cheaper, but they flex underfoot and the grates often discolour. A welded 304 stainless unit rated to 300kg feels solid when you stand on it and keeps its finish. Since the drain is buried in the floor for years, the durable option usually works out cheaper.

Tell us before you install it and we will sort it out, either with a swap or a return under our standard policy. The two situations worth checking early are the height range of 77mm to 121mm against your screed depth, and the 50cm length against your shower width. Message us with those two numbers and we will tell you honestly whether this drain suits the job.
