TECE is adding a channel for natural stone coverings to the TECEdrainline modular system. What’s special about it is that the edge of the water inlet in the drainage solution is identical to the natural stone edge, and the channel itself is completely invisible.
High-quality natural stone floors turn bathrooms into real temples of relaxation. The less the floor covering is interrupted by joints or drainage elements, the more high-class and spacious the room appears. To meet this requirement, TECE has added a channel for large natural stone slabs and tiles of any thickness to its shower channel modular system. When installed and covered, the new channel is completely invisible. While before, narrow stainless steel edges bordered the drain opening, there is now nothing more than a slit in the natural stone.
The new product in the TECEdrainline range consists of a channel body with a 4 centimetre wide surrounding insulating flange and a support for the natural stone covering. The insulating flange means that the channel can be used universally: The stone slabs can therefore be laid using both a thin-bed and thick-bed method. For sealing in a thin bed, TECE offers the optional self-adhesive TECEdrainline sealing tape, which is given a thin-bed seal after application.
The natural stone channel is available in six lengths between 700 and 1500 millimetres. All models can be combined with other components of the TECEdrainline modular system, for example with the Drainbase sound-proofing mat and any drain in the range. The new FireStop fire protection set can also be installed with the natural stone channel. The new extremely flat DN40 drain (0.5 l/s) with an assembly height between floor and channel flange of just 60 millimetres is available for renovation situations. The high drainage capacity of 1.4 l/s is achieved with the vertical DN50 drain or DN70 drain for horizontal assembly.
