The 4-way fall former allows for complete level access and can be used with mosaic tiles.
TANKING
The Linear tanking kit comes with everything you need to waterproof your wet room project. For larger rooms you may need extra bits, and these tanking accessories can be purchased separately.
2-Way & 4-Way Falls
Our SuperSlim Tile-In stock formers are available as a 2-way or 4-way fall option.
2-way fall: two integrated fall gradients which encourage water to move towards the drain.
4- way fall: integrated falls come from each corner of the former, and work well with larger bathroom areas.
The video explains visually the different fall options, how to work with trimmable shoulders and the tile cut finishes.
Suitable For
SECTORS
A flexible product, which suits a range of settings, including residential new builds or renovations, and hotels.
FLOOR TYPES
The SuperSlim Tile-In former can be used on any floor build up, be it timber joists, concrete or beam and block.
FLOOR FINISHES
The 2-way fall allows for easy tiling, with no need to mitre cuts on the tiles. It’s best suited for large format tiles.
The 4-way fall requires you to mitre the tiles, however it can be used for both large format and mosaic tiles, providing greater choice for the end user.
UNDERFLOOR HEATING
Compatible with wet or electric underfloor heating.
Electric mats sit on top of our former (not laid within 300mm of waste) and wet systems (pipes with water running through them, connected to main central heating system) should be laid underneath the former.
Installation
OTL wet room floors are easy to install. We have to hand PDF instructions, an installation video, and help at the end of the phone from our friendly team.
The 2-way fall former has trimmable shoulders to allow for a perfect fit and extra support around the thinner section of the former. The 4-way fall former, doesn’t require trimmable shoulders, as it will butt up against the floor on all sides, providing complete level access.
Cleaning & Maintenance
It is recommended that regular routine maintenance should be carried out at least every 3 months (this may need to be done more frequently depending on usage).
OTL provide you with all the tools you need to make regular cleaning quick and easy.
