How to choose the right floor waste

Start with the layout. A point waste, positioned centrally or in a corner, suits a smaller wet area or a floor that already falls naturally to one spot, and is the simpler, more common choice for a standard shower recess. A linear strip drain suits a barrier-free shower floor or a longer run such as a laundry or alfresco area, where a single fall direction across a wider space is easier to tile and waterproof than falling to a central point.

Check the outlet size — typically 80mm or 100mm — against your existing plumbing or your builder's specification before ordering, since this has to match the waste pipe exactly. Then choose between a tile-insert finish, which blends into the surrounding floor, or a grated finish in a metal tone that matches your tapware, and look for a removable cover so the trap can be cleared of hair and debris as part of routine cleaning.

Frequently asked questions

Should I choose a point waste or a linear strip drain?
A point waste suits a smaller wet area or where the floor already falls to one central spot. A linear strip drain suits a barrier-free shower or a longer run, such as along a laundry or alfresco floor.
What outlet size floor waste do I need?
Common outlet sizes are 80mm and 100mm. Check your existing plumbing or your builder's specification before ordering.
Can floor wastes be used outside, like in a laundry or alfresco area?
Yes, many of our floor wastes are suited to laundries, alfresco areas and other wet zones, not just showers. Check the product listing for its intended use and load rating if it will see foot or vehicle traffic.
How do I stop a floor waste from smelling?
A smelly floor waste is usually caused by a dry trap. Running water through it periodically, especially if it is rarely used, keeps the trap's water seal intact and blocks sewer odours.
