Aqua-Dec Overview
Aqua-Dec
is the ultimate solution in level access showering when used in
conjunction with Tilesafe.
Providing a cost effective solution for level showers
The innovation and design of the Aqua-Dec
is based around the difficulties faced by an installer who would
ordinarily install their own floors. The idea is to reduce the
manual labour and provide a cost effective, robust and practical
preformed shower base.
A quality product made with care
The Aqua-Dec is manufactured using
high quality glass reinforced plastic. The glass surrounds the
core and is then heavily press moulded to eliminate the risk of
delamination.
Put to the ultimate strength test
The Aqua-Dec is very strong and
can safely carry a weight of 256kg (40 stone). It is so tough
that it just rests on the joists and, because it is so light,
it can be installed by one person.
The Aqua-Dec suits both timber and concrete
floors...
Timber floor
At 22mm thick, the Aqua-Dec
is ideal for most timber and first floor set-ups. To fit the dec
the floorboards are removed. When the drainage and pipe work have
been installed the dec can then be permanently fixed to the joists.
The remaining floor must finish level with the dec's edges in
preparation for the covering of your choice.
Concrete floor
On concrete floors the Aqua-Dec
can be let in to the concrete screed and, when the pipe work has
been completed, can be bedded down to sit level with the existing
floor. The flooring can then be laid over the entire bathroom
floor and over the newly installed dec.
Floating floor
The chipboard covering and insulation is removed. To prevent chipboard
movement support the edges of flooring with timber. The supports
also carry the Aqua-Dec which is
eventually fixed to it after the plumbing has been completed.
Then the standard flooring process can be completed.
