FAQs

What material is the Sea-Horse linear drain made of?

The drain body and grille are made entirely of stainless steel. The dirt trap and the base of the grille are made of high-quality plastic.

How deep does the installation need to be?

The drain has a shallow installation depth, suitable for depths up to 80mm, thanks to its height adjustment feature.

Can I customize the appearance of the drain cover?

Yes, you can choose between a gold finishing color or a tile-in option where you can insert your own tile to match your shower floor.

Is this drain suitable for all types of bathrooms?

Yes, its efficient drainage and shallow installation depth make it suitable for most bathrooms, including apartments and houses, especially those with limited subfloor space.

How do I clean the linear drain?

The drain and grille are designed for easy disassembly from the top, allowing for simple cleaning of the trap and surrounding areas with mild soap and water.

What is the primary advantage of a linear drain over a point drain?

Linear drains offer a more modern aesthetic and can be more efficient at draining large volumes of water due to their longer channel design.

Does the 90cm gold drain come with all necessary installation parts?

The product description focuses on the drain itself. Standard installation hardware and plumbing connections should be sourced according to your specific project requirements and local building codes.

Troubleshooting

Slow drainage or water pooling

Ensure the shower floor has a proper slope towards the drain. Check the dirt trap for any blockages and clean it. Verify that the drain is correctly installed and connected to the waste pipe.

Drain cover is loose or rattling

Check if the cover is seated correctly. Some models may have a mechanism to secure the cover; consult the specific installation manual if available. Ensure no debris is preventing a flush fit.

Unpleasant odors from the drain

Clean the dirt trap thoroughly, as this component is designed to prevent sewer gases from entering the room. Pouring a cup of water down the drain can help refill the trap seal if it has dried out.

Difficulty in removing the grille for cleaning

Ensure you are lifting from the designated points and that there are no obstructions. If it feels stuck, a gentle wiggle might help. Avoid using excessive force.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Aesthetically pleasing gold finish or tile-in option for customization.
  • Robust stainless steel construction ensures longevity and resistance to rust.
  • Efficient water drainage prevents water pooling in the shower.
  • Shallow installation depth makes it suitable for various building types.
  • Easy to clean thanks to top-accessible disassembly.

Cons

  • Requires precise installation to ensure proper function.
  • The plastic components (dirt trap and grille base) may be perceived as less durable than full stainless steel by some users.
  • Limited to linear drainage patterns, which may not suit all shower designs.
  • The 90cm size might be too large for very small shower areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation involves securing the drain using the integrated legs, which aid in leveling. The adjustable height feature allows for precise alignment with your finished floor height, up to 80mm. Ensure the drain is properly connected to your plumbing system according to local building codes. The linear design requires a slight slope towards the drain on the shower floor for optimal water flow.

Compatibility: This linear drain is compatible with most standard shower constructions and plumbing setups. It is designed for use in bathrooms, shower cabins, and wet rooms. The tile-in cover option requires custom tile cutting to fit the designated area.

Care: To maintain its appearance and function, regularly clean the drain. The grille and dirt trap can be easily removed from the top. Use a soft cloth with mild soap and water for cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the stainless steel or plastic components. Periodically check for any debris accumulation within the trap to ensure uninterrupted water flow.
