Schlüter®-KERDI-LINE-VARIO – flexible linear drainage
Discover the next generation of linear drainage: Schlüter-KERDI-LINE-VARIO combines the efficiency of KERDI drainage technology with elegant profiles in Schlüter designs.
The innovative system comprises the drainage unit KERDI-LINE-VARIO-H, an adapter with integrated waterproofing collar and a wave shaped drain with built-in odour trap that can be rotated by 360 degrees.
The versatile drainage system is combined with our elegant minimalist design profiles in the design options COVE and WAVE.
Why VARIO?
- The rotatable body of the drainage unit enables optimum installation flexibility.
- The drainage profiles can be individually cut to size at the construction site to create a precise fit for on-site conditions.
- The profiles in the design options COVE and WAVE elegantly reflect current trends in ceramic tile design.
Schlüter®-KERDI-LINE-VARIO
The profile of linear drainage
Many classic designs owe their success to the concept of "Less is more". The true strength of these products is their focus on function, without ornamental accessories.
From that perspective, KERDI-LINE-VARIO is destined to become a classic. The profiles only have a single purpose – to channel the water where it belongs.
Our profiles offer a number of design choices:
- design options COVE and WAVE
- materials stainless steel and aluminium
- and for the latter, eight different TRENDLINE finishes.
Schlüter®-KERDI-LINE-VARIO COVE
Schlüter-KERDI-LINE-VARIO COVE is available in lengths of 120 cm and 180 cm. The cove-shaped drainage profile, which can be individually cut to size, is designed for use with the Schlüter-KERDI-LINE-VARIO-H drain.
A visible intermediate opening 8 mm wide and 140 mm long allows water to flow into the drain. The cove-shaped design creates linear drainage in floor level showers with an especially slim and unobtrusive drainage profile.
The profile comes with two end caps and is available in brushed stainless steel V4A or powder coated aluminium with a textured TRENDLINE finish.
Schlüter®-KERDI-LINE-VARIO WAVE
As the name implies, Schlüter-KERDI-LINE-VARIO WAVE is a W shaped drainage profile for use with the Schlüter-KERDI-LINE-VARIO-H drain. This profile can be cut to size at both ends and is also available in lengths of 120 cm and 180 cm.
The water drains through an intermediate 140 mm drain opening, which comes in different widths depending on the selected product version. WAVE 34 (made of aluminium) has the slimmest opening at 14 mm, while WAVE 42 is considerably wider at 24 mm (aluminium version) or 25 mm (stainless steel version).
The profile comes with two end caps and is also available in brushed stainless steel V4A or powder coated aluminium with a textured TRENDLINE finish.
Our COVE and WAVE drainage profiles in both lengths (120 cm and 180 cm) can be cut to size with millimetre precision.
Use the cutting gauge included in the set to quickly cut the profile to size with a handsaw to precisely match the conditions at the construction site.
The two supplied end caps create a neat, visually appealing finish.
You can also adjust the profile installation height to the thickness of the floor covering by using tile adhesive.
