How can we get enough slope to make sure the shower drains properly?

    Hi Stacy - We have pre-sloped panels (Quick slope) that make it easy to create a mistake proof 2% slope.

    That isn't really the answer I am looking for, the example you show on the website has a curbed shower pan. We need to figure out an install with no curb, and on a slab floor. Digging into the floor to get "drop" doesn't seem like a good idea, and building up seems problematic. Just wondered how othere have gotten proper drainage in this situtation.

    Stacey - Sorry the previous answer was too short and didn't explain better. We have section details for a curbless drain installed at the shower entrance. Assuming you will be installing floor material on top of the slab floor, our Quick Slope is fast and easy to install and will create a mistake proof 2% slope from the back shower wall sloping down to the drain installed at the entrance of the shower. This is how others have used our product in a situation like you described. It is the only option for a truly curbless shower without recessing shower area or building up bathroom floor. If you will call our offices, our Tech Support would love the opportunity to help answer any additional technical questions. 866-998-6685
