Schluter Offers Water-Proof System for Tile Showers
At the Feb. 7-10 International Builders’ Show in Orlando, Schlüter® Systems (Booth S-10701) will be featuring a waterproofing system for tiled showers that is designed to decrease callbacks, make installation easier and faster, and ultimately, lead to a tile installation that will last a lifetime.
The Schlüter-Shower System creates a waterproof shower before the tiles are installed. The shower is not only waterproof, but vapor tight, enabling ceramic showers to be constructed using standard drywall.
Using the system, a pliable sheet-applied bonded waterproof membrane that guarantees uniform thickness is installed on the shower walls and over a tray or a mortar bed. A waterproofing membrane is bonded to the drain at the top of the assembly, resulting in watertight installation that eliminates the risk of leakage, efflorescence and mold growth.
The Schlüter-Shower System components are sold individually and as a kit. Tray sizes are 48” x 48”, 72” x 72” and 32” x 60”, which is also available with an off-center drain opening to simplify a standard bathtub replacement.
Using the tray and curb dramatically reduces total project time because there is no need to wait for a mortar bed to cure.
