Horizontal drain outlet simplifies shower relocations

Schluter Systems has developed the Schluter-Kerdi-Drain-H with a 2 in. horizontal outlet. The horizontal outlet allows the drain to be connected to an existing drain pipe and P-trap away from the new drain location.

Connecting to existing plumbing from a new drain location can significantly reduce demolition work, mess, and the cost of the project, the company says.

The product is identical in every way to existing Schluter 2 in. drains with the exception that the outlet is horizontal instead of vertical.

The drain includes the integrated bonding flange and is part of the company’s shower system for constructing waterproof tiled showers. It is available in both PVC and ABS.
