No, the waste fitting is not included with the Thermopanel SMC shower tray and must be purchased separately.
The shower tray is manufactured from Sheet Moulding Compound (SMC), a composite material consisting of resin, fibreglass, and stone powder.
No, the tray features a slate-textured surface designed to provide secure, anti-slip footing.
Installation directly onto joists is possible, provided the joists are adequately supported and building regulations are met. A solid, level subfloor is generally recommended.
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse well and dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
This guide specifically refers to the Thermopanel SMC Dark Grey Shower Tray in dimensions of 1700 x 900mm, though other sizes may be available.
Yes, the integrated SMC hole-style drain cover is designed to be removable for easy cleaning and access to the waste trap.
Adjust the supporting structure or use levelling shims before final securing. Ensure the subfloor is perfectly flat.
Check that the waste fitting is correctly installed and not blocked. Verify the tray itself is installed with the correct fall towards the waste.
For minor scratches, try a non-abrasive cleaner or a specialised SMC repair kit. Avoid using abrasive materials during cleaning.
Inspect the purchased waste fitting for blockages. Clean any debris from the trap and waste pipe.
Setup: Installation requires a level subfloor and adherence to standard plumbing practices. The tray is designed to be installed directly onto a solid floor or joists, depending on local building regulations and structural integrity. Ensure all connections are watertight. Note: A compatible shower waste fitting must be purchased separately and installed according to its manufacturer's instructions.
Compatibility: This shower tray is suitable for use with most standard shower enclosures and shower valves. It is designed for installation in wet rooms or as part of a traditional shower cubicle.
Care: Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the surface finish. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. For stubborn marks, a diluted bleach solution can be used sparingly, followed by a thorough rinse.
