herringbone perforated draintile system (6" diameter) which tied in several existing rear gutter downspouts and released drainage runoff into a sunken rain garden area with moisture-tolerant perennials and grasses / managing stormwater drainage issues presented by the site's heavy clay soils and sunken "bowl-like" topography. The solution was to entirely regrade the rear yard and
Most point drains (clamping drains) do not offer the fine adjustment other drains offer. Make sure your plumber sets them level. A good trick is to set the drain with a small level in place and then spin the strainer/ the grill should stay level in any position. Notice the additional weep (or draining) holes on the perimeter of this drain — these help the shower dry out faster between uses. This drain is sold by Noble Company, and it’s one of the best drains out there. Tip: Use pea gravel around the weep holes before the final shower mortar is installed to prevent the mortar from blocking or plugging the holes.
When using a traditional three-piece clamping drain (or linear drain), it is important to have a pitch of 1/4 inch per foot to the drain, under the waterproofing material. This allows any water getting under the tile and grout to drain toward the shower's weep holes (drain holes). Skipping this slope creates a shower that can hold WATER UNDER THE TILE. Tip: To check for the right slope, place a 2-foot level with a 1/2-inch shim under the drain side. It should read level if the proper 1/4-inch-per-foot slope is installed.
linear drain from Quick Drain USA is a top pick; narrow profile and the fact that it's also a primary shower drain. Tip: When working with standard 3/8-inch-thick tile, I plan on a 1 1/4-inch finished wall build-out (off the stud framing) to factor in a combination of the 1/2-inch backer board, waterproofing, tile thinset and tile thickness. Plan your build-out before installing the drain so you can put the drain tight to the wall, as shown here. If you have not picked your tile yet, hold off on installing the drain until you have.
