    Product Features ACO quality The shower channel components are all grade 304 stainless steel. Bodies are fully welded and leak tested prior to dispatch. Multiple grating designs The range of grating designs complements personal design preferences and can enhance the appearance of the room. Grates are also easily replaced for a new look. Material finish Electro-polished Channels and gratings are electropolished. This process creates a shiny defect-free surface which minimizes cleaning and maintenance for a high class finish. The textured appearance of the grate is still visible after electro-polishing and helps reduce the appearance of finger prints and soap residue. Page 10 Oil-rubbed bronze In order to complement the latest trend in bathroom fixtures, the channel and grate are also available in oil-rubbed bronze. This finish is applied over the same stainless steel base to ensure a long lasting quality product. 3

    4 Determining type of drainage One of the most important decisions to consider with a tiled shower area is how to design the drainage. Not only aesthetically, but also technically - the solution must fit the bathroom floor layout and grades to ensure it functions properly. Traditional shower drain Offers a point outlet, typically located at the center of the shower area. Requires careful 4-way grading of the floor to ensure water flows to the outlet without ponding. Usually a cheaper initial product cost Usually not appropriate for level threshold applications Requires traditional tiled threshold step to contain water Tiling can be difficult and complex -particularly if using large dimension tiles Increased flooring cost due to extra time required to produce a 3D floor pan. Increased tile wastage due to significant increase in cuts required. Linear shower channel Offers a linear grate and body that can be located anywhere within the shower area. Requires simple 2D grading of the floor towards the channel. Usually a higher initial product cost Can be used with any type of tiled shower configuration Can be used to create wet/dry areas Level threshold can be created for easy wheelchair/disabled (ADA) access Tiling is simplified with minimal cuts required Easy to use with any tile size and material Reduced tiling cost due to decreased time required. Decreased tile wastage due to significantly fewer cuts required. www.QuARTzbyACO.com
