Sealing the shower channel
INFO!
The seal set has to be handed over to the person responsible for the bonded sealing (tiler).
Only use the sealing accessories included in the scope of delivery.
For wall mounting, work the sealing collar on the upright wall into the bonded sealing.
-
Remove and dispose of the site protection.
*The flange must be clean and free from material residues.
-
Grease the sealing element.
-
Clip the sealing collar into the flange.
-
Check that the sealing element is properly positioned.
-
Fit the sieve insert.
-
Insert the wooden site protection.
-
Push the sealing collar into the flange as far as it will go.
All four fixing points must engage.
Observe the bonded sealing manufacturer's instructions for use.
-
Fold together the sealing collar.
-
Apply the first layer of bonded sealing generously onto the screed and the flange.
-
Push the sealing into the bonded sealing, which is still in the liquid state, without wrinkles.
-
Once the first layer has dried, apply the second layer of the bonded sealing generously onto the sealing collar and screed.
Mounting height adjustment piece and shower channel profile
Determining dimensions
INFO!
The shower channel profile can be shortened.
Coloured shower channel profiles must not be shortened.
The shower channel profile is divided into two drain zones.
- 1 Drain zone (flat, no incline)
- 2 Drain zone (with contour, 1–2 % incline)
The shower channel profile can be shortened by up to 100 mm at the ends of the drain zone.
To be able to achieve individual profile lengths, the shower channel profile and the tiles are at the same height.
Shortening range of drain zone
Profile length | Shortening range |
|---|---|
800 mm | 600–800 mm |
1000 mm | 800–1000 mm |
1200 mm | 1000–1200 mm |
- * Offset between shower channel profile and tile
In the drain zone, the shower channel profile can be shortened to a minimum installation length of 150 mm from centre of the drain.
The resultant offset between the shower channel profile and the tile can be closed with a tile end rail or with silicon.
INFO!
If channel solutions >1200 mm are required, the standard lengths of 800, 1000 and 1200 mm can be combined with one another.
To avoid an offset when laying several profiles, shorten the profiles only at the drain zone (max. 100 mm).
Shortening range of drain zone for extended shower channel profiles
Profile length | Shortening range |
|---|---|
2 x 800 mm | 1200–1600 mm |
2 x 1000 mm | 1600–2000 mm |
2 x 1200 mm | 2000–2400 mm |
Shortening the shower channel profile
-
Determine the required dimension and mark at right angles.
-
Using a handsaw, shorten the shower channel profile at right angles and deburr.
Alternatively, the shower channel profile can be shortened using an electric metal slitting disc or a speed-restricted angle grinder with suitable stainless steel slitting disc.
NOTICE!To prevent corrosion, the tools must not have been used beforehand for processing ferrous materials.
Mounting the shower channel profile
-
Insert the shower channel profile into the height adjustment piece as far as it will go.
Make sure that shower channel profile protrusion sits exactly in the recess of the height adjustment piece.
-
Determine the flooring height H.
-
INFO!
For fault-free drainage, Viega recommends laying the floor covering 1–2 mm higher than the shower channel profile.
-
Due to the stepless shortening of the top, an installation height of at least A 12 mm to B 30 mm is possible for tiles and tile adhesive.
-
Lay the floor covering 1–2 mm higher than the shower channel profile.
-
Dimension X = 30 mm - H
Shorten dimension X along the cutting aid and deburr.
-
Unroll the butyl tape and cut to size.
-
Stick the butyl tape centrally on the underside of the shower channel profile.
-
Remove the protective foil.
-
Apply the tile adhesive over the entire surface of the shower channel profile and the height adjustment piece.
-
Remove the site protection.
Do not damage the bonded sealing.
-
Insert the shower channel profile and the height adjustment piece.
-
Align the shower channel profile and the height adjustment piece horizontally.
The shower channel profile can be radially rotated by max. 10 mm (with a 1200 mm shower channel profile).
The height adjustment piece can be moved on the long side by 3.5 mm and on the head side by 10 mm.
-
To allow the shower channel profile to be adapted to the tile pattern, the profile mount is eccentrically positioned by 7.5 mm.
After alignment, fasten the height adjustment piece with tile adhesive.
-
Fit the insert.
Two insert variants are available:
Inlet opening double, model 4981.50
Inlet opening single, model 4981.60
Laying the floor tiles
-
Apply the tile adhesive.
-
Lay the floor tiles up to the shower channel profile.
-
Seal any gaps between tile and grate element with a suitable filler material or joint filler.
