TYPE OF INSTALL:

Wall-to-Wall (Fig 2 and 3)
One way to ensure proper drainage is to install the linear
drain from wall-to-wall. The challenge of this installation
is that it requires an exact dimension. Infinity Drain offers
a solution to this issue with the Site Sizeable (S) Series,
which allows for ”site sizing” the length of the drain by
cutting the grate and channel to the exact finished wall-
to-wall dimension. Infinity Drain’s FX, FF, & FT series can
be custom fabricated for the exact desired length and
outlet location.

Against a Wall (length of drain) (Fig 4)
Infinity Drain’s Fixed Flange (FF, bottom outlet and Side
Outlet FT, horizontal or side outlet) Series are designed
for flush

against the wall

installations. These series are

intended for use with liquid or fabric type waterproofing
to tie into the wall board. They are available with a center
outlet location and in set lengths of 24”, 32”, 36”, 42”, 48”,
and 60.” Custom sizes and outlet locations are available.

The (S) Site Sizeable and Fixed (FX) Series require a
traditional clamping drain body for PVC Liner, Chloroloy,
Lead Pan, Copper, Fiberglass, and Hot Mop type
waterproofing. The diameter of the clamp down drain body
creates a challenge for flush

against the wall

installations. If

using these series Infinity Drain recommends three options
to help properly achieve

against the wall

installations:

1. Install a strip of flooring material between the drain

and wall.

2. Build out the back wall with a double layer of wall

board.

3. Use the FF or FT series for exact against the wall

installation.

Curb or Curbless (Fig 4, 5, and 6)
Deciding between a barrier threshold (curb) or barrier
free (curbless) installation is critical when a linear drain is
being considered. Please consult a licensed professional
when determining which installation is possible. Please see
Barrier Free on next page for more information.

the drain does not finish wall-to-wall
the remaining area must have flooring
material on either side and have pitch
