Matt has been busy the last couple of days installing the “emergency” drains in the laundry rooms and working on the shower bases on the first floor. The first photo shows the Schluter Systems drain assembly as Matt installs it in the floor. The flange screws to the plywood deck and is covered with wire mesh…
Then the area is filled with thin set mortar and pitched toward the drain. Matt will apply a water-proofing paint over the mortar and finally lay tile on top. He uses the Schluter drain assembly in this application because it provides a very low profile installation. The photos below show the first floor laundry on the right; the second floor on the left. We hope to never use these drains!
The last photo shows the shower in the first floor bathroom with the 20 mil pan liner in place. Matt will fill the liner with water and leave it overnight to test for leaks before pouring the concrete shower base and curb. This system pretty much guarantees a leak proof shower base.
