Exterior areas
Can I use the floor drains in exterior areas?
Floor drains without odour traps can be used without restriction in exterior areas. If the floor drain has an odour trap, it must be removed for installation in exterior areas. Schlüter-Systems is the only manufacturer to offer an odour trap that is part of the grate-frame assembly and is therefore removable.

Floor coating
Can I use your drainage systems with floor coatings that have low assembly heights?
Technically, a linear drainage system requires an assembly height of at least 5 mm. With our point drainages, the grate unit can be installed flush with the floor.
Other waterproofing systems
Can I connect to other waterproofing systems?
In principle, you can work with other waterproofing systems (e.g. troweled waterproofing solutions), but they may not contain any solvents.
