FAQs

What is the flow rate of this shower waste?

The Wirquin SLIM+ Extra Flat Shower Waste has a high performance flow rate of up to 32 Litres per minute, which exceeds British Standard requirements.

Can this waste be used in any shower tray?

It is ideal for low-profile shower trays due to its extra-flat design. It requires a 90mm diameter hole for installation and is designed for standard bathroom drainage systems.

How do I prevent odors from coming up the drain?

The product features Smart Membrane Technology with a silicone membrane cartridge and an external bi-injected washer that guarantees a perfect seal, preventing bad smells, pipe noises, and back-siphoning.

How often should I clean the shower waste?

The hair catcher can be easily removed from above for frequent cleaning of trapped debris. For a deeper clean, the entire cartridge can be removed periodically as needed.

What material is the flat grid made of?

The flat grid is made of brushed stainless steel, offering durability and a modern aesthetic.

Is the installation process difficult?

The extra-flat profile simplifies installation, especially in low-profile trays. It requires a secure fixing using the provided stainless-steel plate and screws to ensure a 100% leak-proof connection.

Troubleshooting

Slow drainage or standing water

Check the removable hair catcher for blockages and clean it. Ensure the main cartridge is seated correctly. Verify that the 2% slope is maintained and not obstructed.

Unpleasant odors from the drain

Ensure the Smart Membrane Technology cartridge is properly installed and creating a seal. Check if the external bi-injected washer is intact and correctly positioned.

Waste is leaking under the shower tray

Re-tighten the fixing screws, ensuring the bi-injected washer is properly seated under the tray. Inspect the washer for damage and replace if necessary.

Grid or hair catcher is difficult to remove

Ensure no debris is jamming the components. Try gently wiggling the part while pulling upwards. For deeper cleaning, the entire cartridge removal might be necessary for better access.
